OK. The Pats have 2 of the best returners in the game in Ellis Hobbs (36 yards per return) and Laurence Maroney (28 yards per return).

Do you put one or both on the field to handle the return duties?

Maroney on punts and Hobbs on kick offs. There will be far far fewer of these than punts. Probably only one!

Jackson looked pretty good last week handling the punt returns.

I think Maroney can take the abuse better, and we've got more running backs than defensive backs. Besides, while Hobbs has one big return out of fewer opportunities, I think Maroney will give us a better overall performance. He's simply more likely to break the tackle needed bust one.

Just Hobbs for the duration of this new season. We need Maroney to heal up (as much as possible) from his recent injury...and conserve his energy for backfield duties. The Pats have never had a combo like Dillon and Maroney for the playoffs. I'm sure we'll be taking advantage of their skills...

Maroney has very little experience on punts. The PR has to have some quicks -- Faulk's the man.
