I think priority #1 is stopping the run. They know how to kill us with their big backs. Luckily, we have Arthur Jones this time, who'll help us in the middle, where they really killed us.

True. Unfortunately, Brady still has a live arm. Press coverage could be tough.

Hey, anything can happen, from getting blown out to squeaking out a win.

Wouldn't it be great if AV beats them on a last second FG?

Stop the run and don't turn it over. Im not saying Brady can't light us up but our last 3 losses to the pats have been luck throwing a ton of INTs and us getting gashed on the ground.

It just wouldn't be a colts playoff run without facing NE

I really don't understand why, but the Pats are really the only team that has run the ball on us like that. Gonna be a lot of film study this week...

On defense...

  • Must do a decent job of stopping the run
  • Have to focus on Gronk in the passing game
  • Get pressure on Brady
  • No stupid penalties

On offense...

  • Exploit their defense with our TE tandum of Fleener and Allen.  They can't cover them.
  • Luck continue to be patient and take what defense is giving.  I.E. dump offs to Boom, etc.
  • Protect the football

Attitude

  • New England is an intense and physical team. Colts will need to match their physicality.  No fear.  No backing down. 

 

It is a difficult task at hand but we are the Colts.  Believe :blueshoe: .
