They have a second year MLB, Akeem Dent, starting but he got hurt and had a concussion in the first game. Now they have ancient Mike Peterson at MLB.

In other words, MLB is a mess.

Thei defensive tackles are nothing special. Their safeties aren't to good (Decoud and Chris Hope).

Weatherspoon is pretty good at OLB. Nicholas is below average.

They traded for Samuel so they are loaded at CB and will play in the nickel most of the time. Samuel, Grimes, and Robinson is going to be hard on us. We will have to run the ball well to win.

Abraham and Edwards are decent at DE. They have Jerry (former first rounder) and Babineaux (?) at DT. Pretty average at DT.

I think their run defense will be suspect.

If they're running in the nickel a lot we're going to run it up their ass all game long.
