Patriots vs Colts

doubledragon

I'm looking forward to this one, the Patriots defense vs the Colts offense, something has to give.

I think more specifically it will come down to can NE stop Indy's run game. The Colts come in averaging 190 rushing yards per game over the past month (5 games) while the Patriots are only giving up 84 per game over the same stretch. I can see BB game planning to stop Jonathan Taylor and letting Carson Wentz try to beat you.

I agree, or...he does the opposite somehow and it works. Lol. Like let them think they can run on you, so they do, but they get more yards and maybe clock than points, all the while trading field goals for Patriots touchdowns. 🙃

Let's hope so, It'll be nice to see BB let Mac loose this week. Hopefully most/all of the list are a go on saturday night.

I agree, the Mac Attack has been a little too al dente for my taste

Just another day at the office.

I like our chances.

Tampa Bay beat the Colts. The Patriots should do the same.
