I think their defense will be exploited by Shaun and our TE's

I think our 8-man D-line rotation will tire out the NE O-line and force Tom Brady into throwing a few mistakes. The 'Hawks have 8 picks for a reason :P

yeah, is a HUGE plus for us...the rotation that is.


Brady seems like a cool cat under pressure, and our boys haven't been too good about getting a whole lot of pressure on the QB (see Bulger last week). So, hopefully, our secondary will make up for that by being alert and taking good angles at NE's pass catchers.

He may be a cool cat, but Miami effectively took him out of the game last week... limiting him to 7 completions and 69 yards (:eek: ). We have (much) better corners than Miami and the Pats' WRs are still hurting. I think we force at least 2 INTs yet again. And if Jay Fiedler can get 228 yards on New England, I shiver with anticipation just thinking about what Matt Hasselbeck can do.

If NE had played against Indy like they did against Arizona or Buffalo, they'd have lost. We did get pressure on Bulger until the 4th quarter scheme change. He threw 3 picks and we dropped 2 others. Brady is a far better QB than Bulger will ever be, but if we can get pressure up the middle, we can force some turnovers and sacks. I'd love to see the TE's more involved, especially this week. And Koren, please just catch the damn ball (sorry Keyshawn).

I'm not going to say "I think Seattle will win", but I think the outcome will be in Seattle's favor given all the factors of our offense, our still solid defense, and our coaching abilities. My only real concern is Josh Brown. This kid is going to most likely be punting this w/e, so I hope HIS hammy can handle it

I'd bet they sign Donnie Jones to the active roster and have Hasselbeck hold on kicks. That's the way I'd do it, so I'll fax that to Holmy.

If they do that, they have to put someone on IR- and it'd probably be Ruen. That would do more harm than good, and besides, I think they can wait this out a week or two

Hasselbeck place-kick holding? I suppose it's reasonable, seeing as how he rode the pine for all those years in GB. I don't think I'd want my Pro-Bowl QB holding kicks though... put Dilfer or Seneca Wallace out there. :P

that doesn't mean anyone wants him holding the kicks NOW. I can see the headlines already "Brown shanks kick, and rips of Hass' passing thumb in NFC Championship!!"

Um, no thanks
