In this episode we looked back at the Patriots victory against the Jets. Later on, we previewed the upcoming game for the Pats against the Dolphins. On top of all of that, we discussed which team we most want the Patriots to face in the Playoffs.
Patriots to mix in Blount and Lewis keeping things varied in the running game. Force the Dolphins to cheat up in run support which opens up passing lanes.
Adam Schefter of ESPN was on WEEI this week and said the baseline for a trade for Jimmy G. would begin with the Bradford deal, a first and a fourth rounder.
The Buccaneers deserve their own category simply because their playoff scenario is stranger than Rex Ryan’s proclivity for hidden cameras in an orthopedic surgeon’s office. Not only do the Bucs need a game to end in a tie, they also need two meaningless non-conference games to end in their favor. Oh, and for the Niners to beat Seattle too.
The Dolphins run defense is 30th in the league allowing a whopping 141.8 yards per game. They also allow a league worst 4.9 yards per carry.
Brady really completed his work by halftime going 13-21 for 171 with three scores in the first 30 minutes.

Jets QBs were 8-24 for just 128 net yards with zero touchdowns and three interceptions. They were 1-11 on third down.
the past two games the defense has allowed six points total, and Jets QBs today completed just 8 of 24 passes for 136 yards with three interceptions.
The Patriots will want to naturally put the ball in Petty’s hands and force him to beat them. Hightower will be a big part of the defense in that aspect.
