What's the defensive gameplan for NE?

Eric Allen said that the best way to stop the Pats is to have a couple of physical safeties that are going to punish the WR's wether they catch the ball or not.

What's the defensive gameplan for NE?

Don't turn up.

The skins have a good shot at slowing NE down and winning this game for the following reasons:

NE has been playing too good, so their due for an off week & Indy is up next

Was can shut down their run game...even though they pass 75% of the time

Was has shown it can shut down good offensive passing teams

We have good corners and safeties

We are going to be more physical than NE. I think we'll hear that word once or twice this week.

We tend to play good when you don't expect it

With that being said, we've got to find a way to put up 28pts on offense.

The defensive gameplan? I think the entire gameplan on both sides of the ball should be close your eyes and pray for a miracle. I love our team, but it ain't happening. In my opinion if we hold them under 30 points in their house it will be an accomplishment. The problem is WE CAN'T SCORE!!

Really though, if we contain Moss deep they're going to kill us underneath with Stallworth and Welker. I can also see a lot of screens going to Faulk and Maroney while we're busy worrying about the deeper passing game. Their D isn't amazing. I think we need to come out firing and try to put some points on the board early. If we're down 21-7 at halftime forget it.

I fully expect us to get beaten by at least 10 points next weekend, but NEVER count us out of any game. For those of you who are scoffing, let me tell you a tale:

There once was a man named Spurrier, who was revered as wise and shrewd.
But, alas, in the land of Washington, his team was always booed.
But on one given Sunday, his beleaguered team took to the field,
Against a team named the Patriots who thought that Washington’s fate was sealed.
The Patriots were to win the title that year, and were lead by a man named Brady,
But, on that day, the Redskins defense made him look like a tiny ole’ lady.
The Redskins fought and fought like the little engine that could,
And, in the end, the Redskins won even no one thought they would.
So my friends, it is wise to never give up in despair,
For you never know how our beloved team will fare.

On defense, we match up reasonably well because of our depth. There is no way around Tom Brady though. He is going to pick us apart. But do not forget how good our defense is this year. They and the turnovers they can create will be our biggest asset.

Then you have to remember that our offense could be a AA farm team in their organization if this were baseball. It's going to be a long hard day for our defense, and i will cheer every hit they make.

Our game plan, hit them in the teeth.

I think Taylor should go for Moss's ribs on the first throw towards him.....that's how you stop moss...you pop him right in the midsection....then he becomes a scared little girl....stalllworth i have no solution for

We are just gonna have to mix it up a lot...if we stay in the same zone...brady will adjust and embaress us

We definitely will make a game of it, I have absolute confidence in that much. Whether we can take it down to the wire at the end I'm not so sure. I'll be predicting a skins win once the mods ask for one.

For the first time this year our db's are going to have to cover 1 on 1. Maybe Grilliams will try & play cover 2 & rush 4, but I just don't see us getting pressure that way. I also think LL will have to play in the box a lot more.

The Pats O line has been phenomenal from what I've seen. Dallas has some speed rushers & they bottled em up all day.

I see GW mixing up calls a lot to confuse Brady, trying to call a blitz at the right time. this team can run & we'll have to respect that too. I think we can match up w/their wr's. Stallworth & Welker are good, but we have the depth to match up. I think we'll get a pick or two if brady goes to Moss a lot.

Just a reminder to those already writing us off: Remember who had the number one overall offense last year?

Remember what we did to them in THEIR house with a far less talented defense?
