besides the fact we actually have a defense, offensively Rob Gronkowski is the x-factor. this is the first time we have had our most deadly weapon in the big game. in 2011 he was a decoy which allowed the giants to cover him one on one and focus their energy on welker.
Some people say that earl thomas(one arm) or chancellor can handle Gronkowski one on one. I will have to see it to believe it however. the seahawks put chancellor on Antonio Gates one on one and Gates burned him. Now, as good as gates is gronkowski is a whole other beast.
The colts did a pretty good job on Gronkowski. But what we dont see is they devoted more than one player to Gronk which in turn left Edelman open to have a big game.
How Gronkowski performs vs. 1 on 1 coverage is going to be a huge key in our offense getting going. If the seahawks have to double Gronk then it makes it easier for the rest of the receivers.
