New England coming to Denver, Jan 24

I think big games from Wolfe, Williams. Jackson, Smith, Walker, etc. are just what we need.

Did you hear Wolfe's interview on Friday? Man he hates the Patriots. I mean he didn't hold back. Really loved seeing that kind of fire from the guy who I really do think if we win will be the MVP of the game. He won't get voted that but I do think he will be.

Last week I think he had a total of 8 combined pressures/sacks/hits on the QB. It was the most by any player in the divisional round. 2nd in the divisional round was Von Miller with 7. So to me essentially this game comes down to those guys and how they do of collapsing that right side of the pocket right into Brady's face.

I didn't catch that, but he has played really well recently. Your point above about how pressure from the middle could be the key is something that I've been thinking about. Really hoping for a huge game from our DL. If those guys play well, then I can see our LBs and DBs taking advantage of that.

I would love to see us have a somewhat similar game plan to how we played against the Packers. Essentially we played tight man coverage and then worked to push the pocket back into the QB's face. It forced Rodgers to have to pull the ball down on multiple occasions because his first read wasn't open. This allowed the pressure to really cave in around him not giving him anywhere to go or step up into. They didn't get a ton of sacks but the pressure made him very uncomfortable up the middle and when he couldn't scramble out of the pocket you could tell it completely took him out of his game. He is used to buying that extra time. Brady while not the scrambler of Rodgers is like Manning in he has a very good idea of where he is going with the ball. Playing tight man coverage throwing off the timing of the route could force him to pull the ball down and struggle to see his 2nd read with an OL player right in his face.
