Are you excited for the rematch in Denver?

[deroc5050]

What are your thoughts on the potential to take advantage of mismatches with the RB vs. LB position again? I think that could be a possibility and could help to avoid their strengths on the DL and in the secondary.

I didn't give any thoughts on that particularly but they targeted James White like 17x in the AFCC and that didn't go so well. I think he had like 5 completions. I think they can run the Broncos over with Blount and get white and lewis involved against LB's in the passing game.

A good theory as to why alot of those passes were incomplete to White is because Brady had no time to throw. It will be different this time.

I always feel apprehensive going into Denver but I am looking forward to the game. It would be good to know the Patriots are the team that might knock the Broncos out of the playoffs.

Bring. It. On.

 

[BradyFTW!]

I am excited. If we can go into Denver and tee off on that defense, then I'll be confident that this offense can score on anyone anywhere. And I think there's a very good chance of that happening.

My head says that I can't see us losing this game. Denver's passing game is too anemic, and they should be too overmatched in the running game to even really attempt it. We should dominate them defensively, to the point that 2 touchdowns from the offense should win it. But I'm really nervous anyway. I just hate the pats playing in Denver.

Not excited. I don't consider this game a rematch. Owen Daniels scoring tds against Collins isn't something I have to worry about. Kline who sucked more than anyone is gone. Our top 2 rbs are available and theirs(anderson) is not. No Peyton. Gronk etc

I think this game will be interesting and fun but it is over hyped. I honestly expect our remaining divisional games to be much greater tests.

time for blount to finally show up against these guys!

Like the regular season game in 2015 - keep the pocket clean and force their Linebackers into coverage. Edleman-Bennett-Hogan-Mitchell-Lewis - there has to be a mismatch there every play.

Keep the Pocket Clean! Like most games it will come down to our 5 OL v their 4 Rushers giving time for the mismatch to go from just there to truly damaging.

Looking at the Weather Denver is getting some -0 degree weather this week. Game time temp looks like it could be around 10 degrees. Well it says 2 degrees low 22 for high.

Looks like Tom Brady weather.

Crazy **** happens in Mile High in the BB/Brady Era. I really hope we beat them , but the health of our players is more important in my opinion.

 

[luuked]

Is Anderson even playing? I thought he was hurt and Booker is their running back now?

He isnt playing and by all accounts out for the postseason as well. As will be the rest of the Denver team after the game on Sunday..

 

[Pat the Pats Fan]

Not really, with this defense and their propensity for cheap shots and dirty play.. This is the type of game that we might come out with a win, but at what cost? Which star player on offense are we going to lose to these cheap shot artists

That's what i feared in the rat birds game, when the pats were up 23-3, that they would "start" taking cheap shots.

 

[TomPatriot]

Run, rabbit, run. The Denver run defense was poor against Tennessee. I was amazed that the OL could get to the LBs easily. DLs had trouble fighting off blocks, whether man or zone. DTs didn't match up well with Titans OL. Good running by Murray, veering from the point of attack when the ILBs got there.

 

[DarrylS]

After three very mundane games 49'ers, Rams and Jets.. never boring, but not exciting we had the Ravens game that kept me on the edge of my seat..

Now we go into Denver and I expect pretty much of the same.. IMO we have a much better chance to win this game this week, but if you listen to sportstalk radio this week they will tell us all the reasons why not to believe..

Denver has a good defense, but the Pats have a good defense also.. the difference may be the Bronco's offense which is rated as #25 in the league in a very subjective rating system...

 

[The Brandon Five]

They play in a stadium named for a company that went out of business earlier this year. I'd say it's time for the team that plays there to do the same.

 

[Froob]

time for blount to finally show up against these guys!

I agree but, it really hasn't been his fault past few times. NOBODY was getting anything behind that line in the AFCCG.

 

[dannydyn]

I'm pretty confident they are going to win this game.

Who's 'they'?

They picked up Forsett off waivers, though he was very uninspiring from what I saw last Sunday against the Tennessee.
