    I think this is a favorable match up for us. We are pretty good against the run and they need to run.

    Our offense should be able to score as well as Arizona did.

    THE biggest thing going against us is this is a must win situation for the Seahags. If we win they are pretty much finished in the playoff hunt, so Im worried. They will fight desperately.

    Fingers crossed.

    yeah but they don't do a lot of disguising or changing what they do to match their opponents weaknesses. That was the big point in the Superbowl that they have very little in the way of variation in their base defense. So if Haley has had two weeks to study them he better have come up with ways to pick them apart. I don't expect them to dominate in teh middle of the lines but outside runs, off tackle, screens, quick strikes over the middle to back the linebackers off and it will open up lanes for Williams. Fitzs was gashing them over the middle in their game two weeks ago so I'd would have had plays designed on that.

    I said Pressure and Contain Wilson I am a little worried about Graham but more worried about Wilson. Shut Wilson down and we are in very good shape. Mobile QB's are always a problem for us I am hoping this changes today.....

    Not worried about Graham at all. He has 2 TDs for the year. He is a threat to move the ball down the field but our like our stats of keeping teams out of the endzone

    Keep Ben clean and give him time. Their good defensive front will test the still developing AV and left side. If Ben has the time, I believe our WRs can create enough space on their secondary.

    Ben can also buy time himself if he's mobile enough. Give whineattle some of their own out of the pocket medicine.

    I picked pressure Wilson and keep him in the pocket. I'm not sure how we can lose if we do both of those things.

    We should be worried just cause he only has 2 td's don't forget how good he was in the past and how we struggle vs TE's.

    Nahh.. They will be just fine. I don't care if they put up 1000 yards so long as they keep them out of the end zone.

    We give up 70 more yards per game rushing and 70 more yards per game passing than Whineattle. But we both only allow 19 points per game.

    Thanks Turtle. I still believe we are better offensively and our defense is coming together quite nicely. In fact we have everyone back this week for the first time in weeks.

    Thanks for playing, the question of course is what is most important to do that.

    Taking care of the football is always the key factor. The offense didn't take care of the football today.
