Exactly my thoughts. Tom Brady, although he isn't playing 100%, knows what he is doing in the playoffs. Richard Seymour needs to be dealt with by D'Brick. It's going to be a good match up, and I hope D'Brick can defend Seymour. Maroney we know is a stud. I expect Dillion to get more carries, but Maroney can run the ball many times to. We are going to have to make sure he doesn't break for a big gain. I'm counting on Bryan Thomas and Shaun Ellis and Robertson to do their job as well. We need them to get through that O-Line of the Pats. It's going to a challenge, but I'm sure they have been practicing all week and will be ready. Defense wins championships (In this case it wins Games). Of course we need a great game out of the offense, but the defense will protect that lead for you, and we need them to bring their A+ game.
I fear: Tom Brady, Laurence Maroney, and Bill Belichick I am counting on: Brian Schottenheimer, Chad Pennington, and Mike Nugent
Fear: Laurence Maroney, Corey Dillon, Tom Brady Counting on: Chad Pennington, Cedric Houston, Kerry Rhodes I fear the three above because of what they could do to our defense. The combination of Maroney and Dillon could put this game out of hand very quickly. And obviously I fear Tom Brady because he is a future HOF QB who could pick us apart.
Pats 1. Laurence Maroney 2. Asante Samuel 3. Teddy Bruschi Jets 1. Leon Washington 2. Mike Nugent 3. David Barrett
Worried about: Brady, Brady and Brady. Must count on : Pennington, Pennington, and Pennington. If Brady outplays Chad, I give the Jets a 5% chance of winning. If Chad outplays Brady, I give the Jets a 80% chance of winning.
I'm surprised not-one Ben Watson was named.. absolutely our biggest mismatch unless we have Rhodes shadowing him all game.
Brady Dillon Pats D-line ------------- Mangold D-Brick Kendall We ran over the Pats D-line last round and it won us the game. We need that too happen again to win.
RobA, this may very well be your best post. I never even thought of Nugent. This game will more than likely come down to a FG and if Nuge misses one or two kicks that could kill us. Nice thinking bud.
Three Pats that i am worried about 1.Tom Brady 2.Richard Seymour 3.Ben Watson Three Jets that need to come up big 1.Chad Pennington 2.Leon Washington 3.Dewayne Robertson
1brady if we stop him itll be hard for the pats to win 2their running game dillon and moroony the jets havnt stopped the run very well but if they dont that one big 20 yard run the jets should keepem grounded 3asante samuel him on coles will be tough if he has a bad day look for coles to have a big game
oh i forgot 1 pennington if he passes for over 200yards and no turnovers we should win 2nugent dont miss a fg they are very important in the playoffs like in the divisional game in 04 3cedric housten if he has a breakout game (85) yards or more we could open up the passing game for chad pennington ben grahm please dont drop a fields goal attempt
