2 or 3 players will fall foul of a bout of cramp, no doubt.

Although I just blasted people for complaining about the refs in another thread, I think one thing that helped them in the first meet was that the replacement refs were very slow to set the ball. They are supposed to set it as fast as possible unless there is a penalty, measurement, or offensive substitutions. They were slow a lot of times.

Not the reason the Pats lost or even a minor reason, but it will be one way they had the first game which they probably won't have this game.

I do believe that there will be Raven's players on the ground complaining of cramps or something of the like which can't be diagnosed as an "injury". I am sure they will do whatever they can in order to slow down the tempo of the game. That's what a smart, veteran team will do... obviously something the Texans aren't.

They can if they force 3rd and long situations and simplify calls on defense to set. This is an experienced defense so wont be easy to just hurry up and win the game .

Stopping the Patriots from getting 1st downs is really their only hope.If they get going it becomes almost impossible to stop.

There is nothing they can do. Ray Lewis on the ground faking a leg cramp will get run over by Logan Mankins out ahead of a screen play.

Hope Mankins gives him or Ellerby the same stuff he gave Justin Smithz

The Patriots have been overachievers the past two years. It doesn't have the talent to compensate for injuries, and it wins so much because it puts in 99% effort in the regular season and plays with terrific schemes to mask its deficiencies.

But in the playoffs a good team at 99% will not beat emotional, talented teams that play at 100%. It's what happened against the Giants in 2011 and the Ravens in 2012.

They will tire out the offense but letting them march up and down the field, scoring drive after scoring drive until they're exhausted.
