[QUOTE="LITP, post: 583268, member: 10354"] I feel that the Patriots will approach this one in a similar way to the Colts game - there are some similarities in the opponent. 1. Tough away venue - noisy crowd 2. Very good QB (in Rodgers case we'll move this up to elite) 3. Not particularly physical on defence 4. Strong skills position players on offense. I think we'll see the Patriots try and establish a power running game - perhaps we'll see a 3rd OT in at blocking TE to help win that battle up front. This will hopefully open up play action passes and isolate TE/WR on LBers. It will also, hopefully, limit the Green Bay T.O.P - you don't want Aaron and his WR get lots of opportunities to make that big play happen - because eventually it will happen. I think the Patriots will try and go as light as possible on defence - the front 3 or 4 will be left to deal with the running game without too much help other than Patrick Chung coming down from SS now and then. If Green Bay can't win up front vs this lighter front then it will put AR in a pretty tight position - you don't really want to be throwing into this Patriots D when they are in nickel or dime. Eddie Lacy is far superior to anything that the Colts could offer in the running game - the Patriots don't wrap up properly this guy will gash them repeatedly. If the Packers win this battle then the Patriots will have to bring in an extra guy and AR will exploit the open spaces and mismatches. Questions for Packers fans: 1. Do you see much of the FB (John Kuhn) in regular running plays? 2. Are the Packers a finesse team on 3rd and short? Or will they trust Lacy + O-line to get the job done? 3. Who is the most consistent QB pressurizer on the D? 4. Who is the 'big play guy' on defence that can turn a game around? 5. What are the GB safeties like? Are they stronger in run support or pass defence? 6. What are the GB NT/DT's like? Are they highly regarded? If so, what for? Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
