[QUOTE="PATSvsGB12, post: 582771, member: 10356"] Hey guys - another Patriots fan here. Born and raised in NE, currently living in ATL, and have tons of family in Milwaukee. Thanks for having me here. I hope we can trade knowledge about our teams while we continue to dive into all the possible match ups all week leading to game day. I can't tell you all how excited I am. In fact, I could careless about eating turkey :) I've been reading this forum all day and figured I'd register, chime in, and give my predictions. I think both teams match up well and are fairly similar. Both QB's and offenses are currently playing lights out! We all know that both Rodgers and Brady will score and no defense will completely shut them out. Both team have a respectable running threat, but I believe Lacy > Blount and Gray. Most of you are correct...on paper, outside of Brady, Gronk, and Revis,...the Patriots are just a bunch of scrubs, middle of the pack defense, bunch of frodo's playing wide receiver. We struggled early on (similar to you guys) and some NE folks even wanted to ship Brady out. But for some reason our team is clicking on all cylinders after that embarrassing lost to KC and now the so-called scrubs are all of a sudden producing at a high level. The scary thing is, I see this team improving every week. If you gauge this team (especially the defense) with your eyes and not a stat sheet, I believe you'll see they're better than everyone thought. Even though this game is being played at Lambeau and Rodgers is virtually as invincible as Brady in Foxboro, I think the difference maker in this game will be the Patriots defense. Though we're not getting tons of highlight reels for sacks as a JJ Watt would, somehow we're always putting pressure on the QB. For the majority of the snaps, I believe Belichick will put Revis on Cobb and Browner on Nelson with McCourty bracketing. I think they'll limit Nelson and Cobb as they've done to: Brandon Marshall + Alshon Jeffries Demaryius Thomas + Emmanuel Sanders + Julius Thomas TY Hilton + Reggie Wayne Calvin Johnson + Golden Tate HOWEVER - the main problem is we didn't have Aaron Rodgers throwing to all those receivers listed above.
