Very interesting and something to keep an eye on tonight.
A few nuggets from pre-game warmups:
OLB Pierre Woods took his reps with the first string at Rosevelt Colvin's spot.
Adalius Thomas and Tedy Bruschi were at ILB.
S Brandon Meriweather was lining up with the second string at safety, as Willie Andrews moved from S to CB.
Sometimes these moves give an indication as to how the Patriots will line up defensively. Yet there have been other times when the team has shown a 3-4 look in warmups and then played the 4-3. So we'll keep an eye on Woods tonight to see if he'll have an expanded role. Also, Meriweather lining up at second-string safety appears to indicate that he's taken a leap up the depth chart over Andrews.
