Which alignment would you take heading into next week's game?

1) K. Arrington/ S. Moore at CB and P. Chung/ D. McCourty at S.

2) D. McCourty/ K. Arrington at CB and P. Chung/ J. Ihedigbo at S.

Molden/Arrington Chung/McCourty?

Damn,meant to make it public.

I would go with McCourty and Chung at safety because I think they need the help over the top.

i think McCourty will be back at CB ans Moore will be playing the nickle, so it would be James Ihedigbo at SS Chung at FS and Arrington and McCourty at CB,

but this is a BB defense he will mix it up alot untill he finds with works

My guess is we will be seeing McCourty at both CB and S. If the question is who will the starting lineup be, I'd guess McCourty and Arrington at CB and Chung and Ihedigbo at S.

I think Molden gets the start over Moore, but you never really know with Belichick. I want McCourty back deep on Thomas' side on every play, though. Chung can play in the box.

No doubt, if only the Patriots had the Steeler #1 ranked pass defense....................

McCourty at safety is very appealing against a QB whose main game is to heave the ball in the general direction of a wide open receiver.
