Faulk played in the Super Bowl. He had 7 receptions for 52 yards with 1 carry for 7 yards. Sammy Morris was the RB in my opinion that was a huge loss. Had Brady not rolled his ankle two weeks prior, I believe he would've been able to do just enough to maneuver around that pass rush. Another massive loss was Rosie Colvin. Adalius Thomas was owning the middle of the field until Colvin went down earlier in the season. The long catch and run by Kevin Boss probably doesn't happen.I still really believe that in 2007, the thing that hurt them the most was not having Kevin Falk (plus Brady walking around in a boot was probably not a good thing).
2017, Edelman being injured, Cook being knocked out early, and not enough White and Lewis. Brady played out of his mind, and I think if he passes to White instead of waiting for Gronk to be open, he does not get stripped sacked. I think the Eagles had too much depth on their Dline, and they were still relatively fresh even at the end of the game. I wonder if a healthy Cannon makes a difference as the end of the game.
I think the Pats have proved the last two playoff games that they aren't f***ing around. You've seen it with Edelman flipping a switch and catching anything coming his way after his struggles this season. Gronk will also make a big grab when he absolutely has to. The running game has been great and the Defense has played well despite teams scoring late in games.
This will the first time this current Rams team will be in the Super Bowl. I don't think anyone on their team has been to a Super Bowl before unless you count Cooks who got knocked out within the first minutes of the game. I could seem coming out with the "deer in the headlights" look the '03 Panthers did in the first half.
I expect the Pats to do exactly what they did against the Cheifs and Chargers on offense. Establish the run, tire out the D line and keep the Rams O off the field. I also think the defense game plan will be first to stop their zone blocking run scheme and come after Goff on 3rd and longs like they did with Rivers.
Very confident. I think the Patriots will lead by 10-14 for most of the game and win it by 7.
I knew I was forgetting players.Rams also have Talib, Anderson and Shields, but yeah, SB experience is a hilarious mismatch between the two teams.
Seasoned Patriots Have Hilariously More Super Bowl Experience Than Rams
Depends on where the sacks came from. Are KC's sacks from edge or interior pressure? What about LAR's? If the primary source of sacks are different I don't think a simple numbers comparison holds much water.The Chiefs had 52 sacks in 2018 and did nothing to faze Brady, but I'm supposed to be terrified of a Rams team that got 41?
I'm neither. But I'm not uneasy or anything like that. Just kind of calm. That said, I felt like this last year and look what happened...
