I hope you're right. Those are the crucial match-ups, IMO. Our downhill run game vs. their base defense and their uber-short pass game against our base defense.

I know this much, though; if we can disturb Tommy Two Yards early in the game, we win this walking away. He don't like those hit things. And you can't throw a 3-yard out while your facemask is submerged in soil.

right. It's why the Chargers' plan was asinine. You can't sit around in zone all day, Brady will dissect you. BUT, if you're manning up and can do it, that makes him hold the ball. IF you have a pass rush, especially a strong inside rush, you can crush him.

I actually think at this point in the season, we match up well on their weapons with the exception of the backs. If Berry plays, we might be okay there too.

If Berry plays (on that particular day), I wouldn't be surprised if Tommy Two Yards gets picked twice. Nobody studies film or reads and anticipates QBs better than EB.

Of course, he's also a stud in the run game.

Chung is so awesome he can double Kelce and Hill and be the 8th man in the box on the same play!

Gilmore follows Hill. Kelce is bracketed. Watkins will have to win his matchup... i assume that's what he will do. Along with a muddied rush trying to keep Patrick inside the pocket.

I think they'll try to take away a part of the field not really a player. Reid and his offense can I attack every part of the field, though. This is going to be one hell of a game. But if it is a player I think it's Hill.

He will try to take away Mahomes. But that is impossible. Its like trying to get rid of a hair that is stuck to the tile in the shower. You try to capture some water in your hand and splash it on it, it just moves a little bit and its still there, mocking you.

I think new England will play us line Seattle did. Give pat the short stuff and make us take what we're given. We've beaten that by just letting pat loose. Think Reid's gotta find ways to move pat around. I don't know that the gimmicky of screens and misdirection is going to be our best go at this.

Possession time is what BB will take away from the offense. Long methodical drives to keep Mahomes and company on the sidelines.

Deshaun Watson, prolly

He'd say everything but I would bet Hill. We have to stop your big plays and that starts with neutralizing him.
And of course, like he did with the Chargers, time of possession.

Kelce....cover Hill on anything short and pray Mahomes doesn't hit on long balls...

I'm guessing he focuses most on Hill and Kelce. Bracket Hill with the McCourty bros, single cover Watkins with Gilmore, put Roberts/Chung worrying about Kelce. Basically similar to game 1. They'll force Williams to make the plays Hunt made to slice them up and open things up over the top to Hill. They really don't have a better option.

kelce

But that leaves: hill, sherman, williamssss, watkins still open.

Watching the earlier game.

WE CAN WIN THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get to Brady!!!! And the last two times we crushed the pats---we had Alex Smith.

If it was me it would be Kelce as he moves the chains like no one else. But if I were Andy I’d be planning for both scenarios and whoever they target the other guy (plus some of the bench) need to run riot. Hill deep ball hasn’t been hitting recently (weather?) so that is maybe off the table a bit
