The Jags are moving the ball, it seems, at will. They just have to avoid turning it over. The New England defense is not very good. They give up their fair share of points. Their offense has covered them up well. That's why, if Jax don't beat them, I think Indy will. New England has had the luxury of getting up early and causing most teams to become one-dimensional. If Jax can keep it close and stay balanced, they'll have a good shot.
Can anyone believe it is Jan 11th and it looks like Oct 11th in Foxboro? Nice power running attack, that is what I want to see in Miami BTW.
Chargers have better DB's than the Colts I think.... Cromartie and Jammer vs Jackson and who is their other corner... sure Bob Sanders is incredible, but I dunno...
The problem is, San Diego, at times, is one dimensional (Rivers is a bit inconsistent and has streaks of ineffectiveness). Indy is consistently balanced and there is more potential for big plays and scoring in junks. I just can't see SD keeping pace with NE. I'd love to see SD go to the big game. I'd like to see LT get a ring.
really, aside from a couple missed tackles, the Jags defense is doing pretty good. Also moving the ball very well, and exposing the Pats LBs with Lewis. On a side note: How long will it take a DC to realize when Vrabel comes into the game on offense, 99% of the time they'll throw to him?!? Jeez everytime I see him come in I know the ball is going to him, and yet he is always open
Yea but that playing calling by the Jags at the end of the half. Comon. That's the diff between the Pats and other teams. I don't think they would have run those plays. They would have taken some chances.
the difference is also that the Jags have only 2 big time playmakers on offense; Maurice Jones-Drew and Fred Taylor. Gerrard is good, but Del Rio does not trust the WRs enough to open the playbook. the Pats aren't really good playcallers, they just have so much talent at WR they spread teams out and make you defend 4/5 guys a down
