Mangini's Game Plan for Jets vs Pats on First Take - New England Patriots Forums

***SoCal Pmen*** · 11-20-2012, 10:55 AM

On First Take, Mangini thinks the Jets game plan will be to put Cromartie on Lloyd, double team Wes Welker and force the Patriots to beat the Jets with Edelman or Hernandez. Doesn't think the Pats will be able to run the ball all that well. All panel members picked the Pats to win a close one.

I can see Woodhead factoring in this game coming out of the backfield.

Won't be able to run the ball? On the last bottom of the barrel run stop defense? Yeah... okay

If Connoly or Mankins are back they'll run like crazy over them. Otherwise I think we see alot of Wood****.

Didn't we rack up a ton of yards on the ground gain at the jets last time around? Not that that guarantees anything, ESP with gronk and mankins out, but I wouldn't count out our running game just yet.

Mangini is dead to me.. if I never hear his name again, it will be ok..

That's going to be a genius gameplan if they employ it. Going to have to take advantage of that with a healthy dose of Hernandez, Shiancoe/Fells, and the running game.
