This is the anti "we will kick their ass" thread.

Jax is a desparate team playing at home. They are a very good leam that has laid the wood on several other good teams. Their backs are againts the wall.

Yes, they have lost to the Texans twice and Tenn. But, they beat up the Colts and the Jets.

I expect a game with playoff intensity. I do expect a close game but a Patriots victory. Then we can all have a Merry Xmas.

And no one believed me!

(Yes, even PatsNut!)

Maybe not inspired, but certainly sensible.
As long as we win.

“We are building a big, strong, fast, smart, tough and disciplined football team that. consistently competes for championships.” Guess who.

I'll be surprised if Garrard beats us. If we avoid turnovers I think we'll be OK.

Can't wait for the game tomorrow. With the "excitement" of Christmas eve, this game has the feeling of a playoff game to it.

Hell, the playoffs are right around the corner anyway. And some of the best afternoons/nights of the past 5 years have been those exhilarating (with the exception of the last one) playoff games.

i don't even think it will be tough

we will focus on stopping the run and let Garrard try to beat us.

and there is no way in hell that will happen

it is very simple


it will be a bloodbath of biblical proportions.

Our offense vs Jagwads D...
Big DL. Very strong against the run. We need BOTH Dillon & Maroney to have a run game. Inside & outside.
Good front 4 pass rush. They don't blitz much but if we go pass formation a lot (I think we will Sunday) they'll bring more blitzes.
Like every other team that causes us problems they'll bring up the safetys (hurting our run) and play the CBs close up to the LOS. It will be up to our ragtag wideout bunch to beat this coverage with some consistency, enough for a couple drives. Bam could be an interesting factor here as well as on STs. Bam may be backup for an ailing Faulk on returns. If Faulk is not hurt and is full speed, he can counter the rush with some screens.
Brady needs time (bring your A game Light & co) and SOMEBODY has to be reliable geting seperation.

Our D vs Jagwads O:
Star RB Taylor out but mini-Drew is fast and hard to tackle. Maybe he's slowed down by injury. Dunno. BIG OL. Strong not finnese. With Wilfork OUT, my man Mike Wright needs someone to spell him at NT. Green can play NT but mostly in a pass D 3-4.
How hurt or healthy is Vrabes? Big factor for the hurtin' run D with Seau gone.
Last playoff we made some big turnovers. Garrard is a good runner and maybe we can disguise our coverages so that Asante can get another pick and price himself totally out of our consideration in '07.
Speaking of which, our DBs are way out-heighted. The Jagwads throw up the long ball and rely on the receivers to out jump and out muscle the DBs. Hopefully, no tacky PI calls against us here.

I dreamt they won that game before they did. Lets see if I have a similar dream tonight.

I hope that you are right but I'm thinking more like 20-16 Patriots.

I also dreamed before the Chiefs game last year that we blew them out...that didn't happen.

(That pats1, what a homer! He probably dreams before every Pats game they'll blow out their opponent!)
