[QUOTE="mradtke66, post: 943285, member: 4199"] I go one further--I was flat out worried (had we made it, of course :) ) When we played them the first time, the gameplan for the Pats was defense was obvious. In no particular order: 1. Take Cobb and Nelson out of the game. IIRC, they put Revis on Nelson and doubled Cobb (though I might have that backwards.) The one time the did not run this scheme, Nelson scored his touchdown. 2. Don't let Rodgers beat you with his mobility and keep him in the pocket. The ends rush-contained the entire game. I don't remember a 5+ man pressure all game. 3. Given 1 and 2 above, make that rookie Adams beat you. This plan was obviously a good one, as the final margin of victory was 5 points. Assuming the Packers made the Super Bowl that year, no. 2 above is no longer necessary. That's the season Rodgers injured his calf and struggled to move at the end of the season. So now Belichick can keep number 1 and 3, but he doesn't need 2. He doesn't even have to blitz, but just letting his ends get up field and push the pocket make up that 5 point difference. [/QUOTE]
