So I don't expect anyone to actually read this because everyone in the world is talking about this game and all the pre-game shit surrounding it. It ranges from feet to Tom Brady being a winner to counting Cromartie's kids. When it comes down to the game, there will be trash talking and stuff on the field I'm sure but there is a game to be won here. The Pats pounded the Jets 45-3 in Foxboro and the Jets made the Pats offense look rather ordinary in their 28-14 Week 2 win. Let's take a look at what I think is important about this game now shall we?
1. Can the thin Pats D-Line stop the run?
- The Pats are dealing with all types of injuries as potential starters Ron Brace(elbow),Mike Wright(concussion), and Ty Warren(hip) are out. Myron Pryor(back) is also doubtful
so that leaves Vince Wilfork, Gerard Warren, Kyle Love Brandon Deadrick, Eric Moore and Landon Cohen as main contributors.
2. Can the Jets D stop the Pats' young TE s and RB s?
- I think the answer here is no. I expect big games from Aaron Hernandez and Rob Gronkowski along with Woodhead and BJGE.
3. Will a big play in special teams give one team momentum early in the game?
-I worry about Brad Smith still even though he is hurt but B Tate or Dan Connolly give the Pats two viable kickoff return specialists to give the team a spark.
4. Will Brady pick on Cromartie all day?
- I have to admit "Cro" didn't look so good last week as Peyton went to his side early and often. He would have been the scapegoat had the Jets lost that game.
5. Who is going to be the guy to step up with a big play?
- This isn't going to be a big name necessarily. I expect a guy with a lesser role to step up and make a big play like causing a turnover and scoring or a big play on offense to swing the tide of the game in the second half.
Anyway down to my prediction...Pats win 28-17.
Buy some cool shirts.
