I love how people want to blame this and that.

Teams are stacking the box and there is nowhere to go.

It's not some big conspiracy.. Has nothing to do with players sucking.

We are just too predictable when and where we are running.

Teams stacked the box last season even when then knew Dallas was gonna run. Didn't matter. The offensive line was dominant and so far this year they've been mediocre at best in run blocking.

We have just become too predictable and have too many tendencies.

Always crack up at the "adjustments" comments.

How many adjustments can you make in 10 minutes? Most of the players are in the can.

Adjustments - as in, its half time and the coaches say, ok, we are being gashed up the middle, or they are taking out our corners, and running their TE's in behind. So we will counter by doing....... Ya know, ADJUSTMENTS.
Many, many games you will see a totally different strategy in the 2nd half of games. Take away whatever is killing you in the 1st. Run when you were playing pass, pass when you were playing run. Formations that have been killing you.
Just not by our team i.e. Falcons game...

We better come out throwing because Belichick knows how to shut us down in the 2nd half if we don't, probably the 1st half, too. Just stack the box and watch us bounce off of it until the game is over.:(

this game could get really ugly unless the D really comes to play. I mean 30-40 point ugly.

We need to continue to run but mix it up.. Keep the defense thinking a little.

If coaches like the Falcons and Saints have can basically call the perfect defense every play then what is belichick going to do.

We have to be less predictable.

If they are just going to play not to lose football then just forfeit the game because I don't want to watch this scared gutless football anymore. I want to go for it.


Go 5 wide and let Weeden play from the spread like he did in college.

Gonna keep my expectations at arm's length for this one. Whatever good that happens, I'll just consider gravy.

I know it is hard to picture us beating the Pats, I'm hoping Cassel will be QBing the team, at some point before the game is over or it gets out of hand.

I will be happy if we dont get blown out which is totally possible as the Pats put up over 40 on the bills and they have a way better D than us.
