    I'm so ready for this game. I'll echo what everyone else has been saying in that we need to find a way to put mad pressure on Brady.

    Watching the Dolphins vs Pats game, there were times Brady could've cooked a steak on the grill, being that he had so much time to throw the ball. That also means his WR's and TE's weren't getting open.

    Crazy as it may seem, we need to make the Pats one dimensional and take away their run. It's not because their running game is anything special, but because we've been gashed in the run game this year.

    See another factor no one is talkin about is the weather. it's going to be cold and raining which I'd normally say would be good for us, but we have a better passing offense than them and the rain is gonna make it harder

    Stephon Gilmore (NE) has allowed receptions to receivers he was covering on just 47 of 93 targets (50.5%) this season -- 7th best of 58 qualified NFL defensive backs; League Avg: 62.3%. Per pk

    I'm not focused on the weather right now. It's Wednesday and the game is Saturday night. So many times I've seen the weather forecast change at a blink of an eye.

    Hopefully we can contain Sanu. Pats gave up a 2nd rounder for him for a reason. Dude is clutch going across the middle on 3rd downs.

    Same reason they better be prepared for Sharpe. Maybe not over the middle but all over the field and just a first down machine.

    Agree. We need to give Sharpe more opportunities though. Seems like he only gets 2 targets a game. Sharpe literally needs to be on the field on every 3rd down.

    It has been speculated that he has an elbow injury because he has not been very effective throwing the ball deep this yr. In looking at his nexgen stats it is remarkable how close this yr and last yr are. The big drop off happened last season
