This is this team's weakness in my opinion currently. Most LB's can't cover Sproles out of the backfield. but i think especially ours. I personally think if offenses are patient enough and are willing to use their RB's as targets we sometimes struggle especially when the RB responsibility moves over to Hightower.
I think we will have Mayo on Graham as much as possible with Gregory help. Talib will take Colston 1 on 1 and McCourty will help in the middle. But that usually leaves Hightower on a RB. Which is a good matchup in the running game but not so much in the passing game.
Sproles will have 200 total yards if NE keeps the same defensive plan as they've been doing, but something tells me that they'll make an adjustment in two weeks.
