Didn't read the whole thread. If we face them in the playoffs, I think Belichick will have a plan for him. Pats ALWAYS struggle against the RPO, so it'll have to be a plan that hasn't worked yet for the Pats. It would really have to be a masterful plan, something LJ has never seen. Maybe something like a speedy DB instead of an LB as a spy. Just something different that will disrupt him. Easier said than done, but I believe in Belichick that he can do it. There is film out there of times he's been stopped, so it can be done, but it would be a great accomplishment.
That being said, when KC was steamrolling the NFL last year, I thought nobody would be able to stop them, but was pleasantly surprised the Pats were able to beat them in the AFFCG (beat them TWICE last year). We would need to be completely healthy if we face Baltimore again this year.
I know Brady has looked pedestrian this year, middle of the pack, but man, he's a different animal in the playoffs. Not many QBs are as cool, calm, and collected as Brady when you get to the playoffs. These next 5 games would be a great for Brady to get more comfortable with his new receivers. I do believe he's comfortable with Meyers, but if he can get comfortable with Sanu & Harry, this offense will be a formidable one.
