Patriots @ Seahawks pre-game discussion

[BobDigital]

No one has made one yet... and seeing we are less than a week away, and the smoke has cleared from the cuts, we may as well start talking about the same. I thought of calling there 'We're onto Seattle" or "We're onto the Regular Season". But feels like we should like the BB stuff drop? IDK.

Anyway here is my main take away. There is a massive amount of pregame disrespect in the mainstream media.




Yeah... I am not buying that. I think the Pats surprise much of the world and win this game. Assuming Gonzo plays, which i think he will. I expect a hard fought one though. But who knows... week 1 can be silly.

A lot hinges on Gonzo showing up healthy and playing hard. Remove JSN and it is a different game.

Eh they get the benefit of the doubt they're the defending champs opening at home where it's tough for any opponent against the team that they beat handily in the Super Bowl. All but one are by no more than 1 score so that's some respect there for the Pats. With that said I think week 1 is a great time for the Pats to play them. Gonzo needs to be active though for sure.

What is the biggest thing you want to see get answered in this game? For me there is a lot of things: Can we effectively run the ball, Are we not so predictable in the play calling, Does Drake try to force too much to AJ, Any designed runs for Drake, Does Drake learn to finally throw the ball away and not force an INT, Can the front 7 bring pressure or does Darnold have all day in a clean pocket, Does Borregales become consistent, Does Gonzalez give 100% with no deal in place, Is Henderson playing?

But the #1 thing I am looking at is this....Does Will Campbell anchor the left side of the line.
