OK.. I didn't see it up, so I figured I'd start it..
Will Miami have enough D-lineman to run their 4-3 with 5 of them inactive?
Will Maroney have a field day?
Will Light and Laczur be able to keep Taylor and Roth at bay?

Welcome to Miami
By Mike Reiss, Globe Staff
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. -- Welcome to Dolphin Stadium, where the Patriots (6-0) visit the Dolphins (0-6) today.
Conditions could be a factor, as it is hot and humid here. Temperatures are currently in the mid-80s but it feels hotter than that. There is a slight breeze through the stadium.
In terms of atmosphere, it is quiet in the parking lots surrounding the stadium, which is reflective of the fan support the winless Dolphins are receiving. A lot of Patriots fans here.
Pete Morelli is scheduled to referee today's game.
We'll plan on passing along some updates along the way today.

I really don't care who we lose in the secondary if we can go into next season with Randy, Donte, Wes, Chad as our receivers I'd be just fine with that.
We can't break up this chemistry these guys have we need to open up the wallet for Randy and Honor Dontes contract no way either one walks in free agency.

On the ESPN pre game show they were trying to formulate plans to stop us. Lots of movement and different looks to confuse the QB. Keyshawn, who has played for a team with a Belichick coached D, was smiling realizing that's easier said than done. Ditka said if you couldn't do it then the only alternative was to lock 'em in the locker room. LOL

I don't think Moss was lobbying Tom - I think they were discussing how depressing it would be to be a Dolphin today. Brady can only imagine, Randy has lived it in Oakland and late in Minny.
Mort said today that Pepper has regressed to his norm since their Miami game and if McCown were healthy he'd be starting and Russell may be in sooner than later.

Yeah I know. I agree with you about the defense. It's not horrendous, but its simply not up to par with the Pats defenses of the past in my opinion.
The numbers say you don't know what you are talking about?
Where is the evidence of these 'effortless drives' if it isn;'t in the yards column? :rolleyes:
if our offense is putting up points opponents become one dimensional which effects numbers. Trust me, i hope iam wrong and you are right about this being the 2nd best defense but iam sure a lot of posters will agree the numbers dont tell the whole story.
trent edwards moved the ball on us, derick henderson, even pennington. So its not completely false that teams have moved the ball us easy at times. No need to get personal- we are all pats fans.

Only problem with the kickoff return is it puts the defense right back on the field.
Playing a desparate team that's 0-6 presents some defensive challenges. On third and long situations, we tend to play zone concepts and try to keep them short of the sticks. Doesn't really work on a team that will go for it on 4th.

Yeah I know. I agree with you about the defense. It's not horrendous, but its simply not up to par with the Pats defenses of the past in my opinion.
its quiet simple. just swarm to the ball and tackle. were not getting overpowered..or blocked/pushed back.
we simple miss tackles and dont tackle as a team. we line up and try to arm tackle with 5 people

Ok, maybe Andrews would be a good kick returner. :)
As long as Ellis isn't covering him... you see III close the gap as wingman? Ellis is a burner.
Nice they finally get around to calling some holding too...

According to NFL Draft Scout, the college scouting report on Willie Andrews:
http://www.nfldraftscout.com/members/ratings/profile.php?pyid=11880
"In 46 games at Baylor, Andrews started 34 times. He recorded 219 tackles (152 solos) with 8.5 sacks for minus-80 yards, 26 stops for losses of 120 yards and eleven pressures. He recovered two fumbles, including one he returned 30 yards for a touchdown, and also caused three fumbles. He deflected thirteen passes and intercepted three others for 51 yards in returns (17.0 avg). He carried once on a fake punt for a 7-yard gain and totaled 949 yards on 97 punt returns (9.8 avg). He also returned 67 kickoffs for 1,647 yards (24.6 avg)."

if our offense is putting up points opponents become one dimensional which effects numbers. Trust me, i hope iam wrong and you are right about this being the 2nd best defense but iam sure a lot of posters will agree the numbers dont tell the whole story.
trent edwards moved the ball on us, derick henderson, even pennington. So its not completely false that teams have moved the ball us easy at times. No need to get personal- we are all pats fans.
What you are saying doesn't make any sense - we aren't going to shut these teams down completely.
Teams are going to get yardage against us - we may get up earl;y against teams but their is little evidence to suggest that this is a poor defense.

Oh quit over reacting.
This is all great film for BB to "lash" his D with before Washington comes to town. It's hard to maintain intensity with consistency against a team that hasn't got a shot against you. They will tighten up after this drive and Miami will pay the price.
You've been singing this crappy song since the 3rd week of the season and guess what...the defense isn't improving, it's actually getting worse. So do spare us. This defense will keep us from winning the SB if it continues its current trend.

Some of you are remembering with your revisionist glasses on. We've always let teams move the ball against us to some extent. That's bend but don't break. I know memory fades over time but we never shut teams down although we were a little better at points in time in shuting them out of the EZ. This is week 7.

Look, some of you might be right about this defense being lesser than others, but the Pats have usually picked their spots. Up 14-0 in the blink of an eye on an 0-6 team, you are bound to have a letdown. I just don't think you can extrapolate that accurately to how the team would do against a better team--the only evidence we have is how they did against SD, Cinn, and Dallas--SD was shut down, and the other teams were taken care of when it mattered. Hence the 6-0 start.
