Redskins or Patriots Defense??

billyharless · 10-27-2007, 01:54 AM

Be honest! I have both defenses in two different leagues. I am starting the Skins this Sunday. Am I crazy?

skinsfanthru&thru · 10-27-2007, 02:01 AM

I'd like to believe no but I've honestly NEVER seen an offense leaving defenses in shambles week after week like NE's has.

Redskin · 10-27-2007, 03:26 AM

Hmmmm, I say the D gets atleast 1 pick and a fumble recovery and im gonna say they are vringing a punt return back that being said I dont think that NE will allow that many points although they wont make any huge defensive plays either.

I'm not really sold on the patriots defense. first, its alot easier to play defense with the lead. and secondly, it doesn't seem like they are on the field a whole bunch

Campbell17 · 10-27-2007, 09:22 AM

new england is more reliable, but Washington isn't half bad either.

Here's a question for all to let to think about....

We have yet to really pin our ears back and go after the quarterback... Do you think that Coach Williams will finally call on the dogs and go after Tom Brady??? Watson is out and our D-Backs are one of the strongest units in the league. Don't you think it's time to be aggressive?

It's always good to play aggressive, however I think it will be wise for us to mix our defense's as much as possible, and not think in terms of blizting Brady as a diet. He's too good, and his receivers are too good to be left one on one with our DB"s.

Once we demonstrate we can score more points than we have been, GW may be more inclined to take chances with his defense, until then, I think he'll keep it close to the vest.

EARTHQUAKE2689 · 10-27-2007, 11:27 AM

yes i would say go after him only if our front four cant get pressure cause in the Detroit game we didnt have to blitz and is Marcus Washington playing because he is vital to us.

Cowell · 10-27-2007, 11:47 AM

Start New England's D, you can't go wrong we will turn the ball over.

EternalEnigma21 · 10-27-2007, 01:47 PM

follow your heart... thats what I do.

I would start the Washington Defense before I would the Gaytriots.

I like the way the Washington secondary matches up against those NE receivers. The Gaytriots like to throw the ball which will provide more opportunity for Taylor and company to make plays.

On the other hand, this is the first time that Jason Campbell will face a Belichick defense. That hybrid 3-4 they run can easily confuse a young QB. And they are some of the best at disguising their coverages and blitzes.

Couple that with the injuries to the Redskins O-line, their recent ineffectiveness in the passing game and I see Saunders pounding the ball all day with the run and using the pass sparingly.

Tha Posse · 10-27-2007, 03:13 PM

Has Campbell faced a 3-4 yet other than the Ravens in preseason?

billyharless · 10-27-2007, 06:16 PM

So I should flip a coin?

redskinsskickazz · 10-27-2007, 07:27 PM

you would be crazy, not because the patriots defense is so much better than ours but because there offense is on an historic pace and ours is stinkin up joints.

That's exactly why you should start the Pats D. We are almost guaranteed to turn the ball over more times than they are.
