9/20 Pats at Seattle
- Thread starter Sille Skrub
- Start date
I am fascinated to see what the gameplan is for this one. If I had to place a bet early, without really having done a lot of research, I'd bet its a James White game
I'll be interested in watching the Seattle vs. Atlanta game from yesterday. Ryan threw for 450 yards, so I'm curious to see if they were empty stats; Atlanta had 3 WRs with over 100 yards receiving. Looking at Seattle's roster, this is not the Legion of Boom defense. They're still big, physical, and aggressive, but the pass rushers are meh and the starting LBs are all 30+.
Defensively, NE's pass rush is going to have to be a lot better than it was yesterday. Seattle's OL always seems to have issues, but Wilson/Lockett/Metcalf are waaay more dangerous than what Miami threw out there.

I'd assume that any sacks we get in this game will be coverage sacks, and very limited rushing/blitzing. Bill is going to want the front 7 in contain mode to keep Wilson from hurting them too much, and rely on his secondary to limit Wilson's options in the air.
The pressure this coming week needs to come inside the tackles with Wise and Cowart. Then the ends can contain and squeeze the pocket down on Wilson.
What is the possibility the game gets moved out of Seattle due to the air quality issues caused by the wildfires?
Looks like much needed rain the the PNW Thursday/Friday, so hopefully that'll help.
My best friends youngest son lives in Seattle and works for Facebook, we planned a visit out there last year when the schedule came out, he was going to line up tickets..........Finally get a game in Seattle and I can't go
So much for that.
Back when the schedule was announced, since Pete Carroll used to be one of my wife's client, I asked her to reach out to him about going to this game for my birthday (which is a couple weeks away so there's still time for most of you to do your shopping).
Here are some shots from the last time she reached out to him.
The final pic is a view from our seats, which were in the luxury box managed by Pete's wife and the GM's wife.

Collinsworth was truly heartbroken that the Seahawks lost that game.
He's the president of the Patriots hater club.
And he was so excited when Kearse made the catch that he was practically giggling. But he absolutely was despondent when the Butler INT happened. So great.
"Saint's Rest, please report to Commissioner Goodell's office. And bring your phone."
I am probably most likely unaware of the joke you are making.
No Doritos were harmed in my post.

I'm sorry, the judges were looking for "more probable than not that I was generally aware"
And again, it’s fine to say they should have run a different play, but for the record the Seahawks circa 2012-2013 were terrible offensively on the goal line and Marshawn Lynch over his career was terrible from the 1 yard line - under 50% I think - so running him into a defense of eight men on the D-line may not have resulted in anything other than a stop followed by a Seattle timeout and a pass.
But considering the previous play from the 5, when Hightower was barely able to trip up a charging Lynch at the goal line, another handoff looked all but certain. OH WELL!
As someone pointed out in one of the Celtic threads after Jaylon Brown related how much it meant to see his mother, it’s easy to forget that these players are still young, and hence their parents are as well.
Russ is one of the best there is, as he’s playing that way.
I don’t see the Pats having the kind of passing attack (at least at this point in the Cam Era) to go blow for blow over four quarters.

I’m taking some solace that White has a ton of former teammates and coaches in Miami to support him while he is there.
I dont see this being a blowout. Pats may lose but IMO its a FG game either way. Pats D is too good, IMO, to let it get out of control. Only question I have is will the Pats offense be cohesive enough to score themselves
