    I don't know, but I'd like to see them install some very loud and vulgar audibles for this game.

    Suh injuring Brady?

    Seriously though, the defense is going to give up yards and points so the offense is going to have to put up 40 points to win...no turnovers and take advantage of the opportunities they are given. Still thinking 45-20 Patriots. It’s going to be ugly...

    1. Line the pockets of go to hell and ply him with alcohol when he attends the next party thrown by Roonie
    2. Bug their locker room
    3. Have camera person setup behind their bench and film them intently
    4. Deflate balls
    5. wait for gronk to fall down then when he least expects it deliver a forarm shiver to the back of his helmet (Bonus it you do it to shady brady at the same time)
    6. Have Ben fumble the ball but pay the refs to say he was only tucking it.
    7. if it's snowing have a snow sweeper at the ready to clear a patch for Boz to kick from
    8. Don't cut off signals to Ben's helmet when it's supposed to cut off (on 2nd thought don't do this Ben is much better on his own accord, instead do it for the D)
    9. Jam their communications
    10. Have someone pull the fire alarms at their hotel
    11. Dog pile Shady brady and give him the "Business"

    Did I miss anything?

    We need Vance out there throwing stone cold blocks. Call it Vance Refrigeration. I don't know how his shoulder is coming along but him playing is one of the keys to victory.

    It's going to be a shootout. With Shazier and Haden out, we just don't have the tools to stop them all night. So we have to outscore them.

    Re: Key to Beating Patriots?

    All I know is that I'm watching the lowly Dolphins give Brady all he can handle by sticking a body on everyone and making Brady run for his life. If the Steelers get beat by being aggressive so be it, but if they play the same type of bullshit gameplan they ran last year then they deserve to be crushed....The DOLPHINS..up by 17 and Teeing OFF on Brady!....fun to watch

    Brady is such a wus when he's about to be it. Ben stands in there like Mt Everest, Brady starts bailing when he knows he's gonna get tagged.

    Re: Key to Beating Patriots?

    If im reading these tiebreaking rules correctly, if the dolphins somehow hold onto a win tonight, and the steelers lose next week (then both clubs proceed to win out), then the steelers would still be the #2 seed correct?

    It honestly seems like the outcome of this game is meaningless as long as both clubs win out after next weeks game

    Watch Butler not learn a damn thing and do the same soft bullshit that's gotten them killed so many times, especially if Haden can't play.

    Yep. I just tweeted that...

    What is interesting is that the Taperiots can lose the Dolphins game, and still win the #1 seed.


    Likewise, we can win on Sunday, and then lose another game... and still be the #1 seed.


    If we both end I with the same record, the had-to-head game is the tie-breaker.


    Next Sunday is HUGE.

    You got it.

    Same record means first tie-breaker is head to head.

    SEVEN 3 and outs for the Pats tonight. It's FUN watching Brady get pissed off and aggravated. Keith Butler, PLEASE take some notes.

    Joking aside...

    Does anyone else think that Belichick might have done the most Machiavellian thing ever, by throwing this game? Save all of his plays for the Steelers, and make the Steelers overconfident.

    (This game is meaningless for the #1 seed.)

    Re: Key to Beating Patriots?

    The moment the Dolphins went soft in their coverage scheme the Patriots went right down the field. LEARN from this guys! We gotta get in their face. The Dolphins made it work, they don't have our talent.

    No...cuz Brady is getting pounded. I can't imagine that Belichick would take that kind of chance with his prima donna QB

    Re: Key to Beating Patriots?

    One key to the game? Try to move the game to Miami. The Patriots have now lost 4 out of their last 5 in Miami. The AFC east may be a cakewalk for New England every year, but playing in Miami has been anything but that for New England in recent years

    - - - Updated - - -

    They need to hit Brady early, even if it draws a flag, there will be long term benefit from it as the game wears on

    Let Ben backyard it the whole way. The Patriots struggle against guys like Russell Wilson, Cam Newton, becuase theae players will keep drives alive with their feet and uncanny ability to elude rushers.

    1.Ben extends some plays with his feet on crucial 3rd downs.
    2. Tell Todd Haley we play on Monday.
    3. Get Levy in the slot and run conner. New look they haven't seen film on.
    4. Feed AB per usuaul.

    5. Defense.... go to 10am Mass and pray.

    - - - Updated - - -

    6. Double TE set with James and Mcdonald seemed to do well... just keep swapping personal constantly to find mis matches.

    I can think of games where he did it before (that OT game against the Jets I believe where he won the cointoss but gave the ball to them), but I don't think here. Because now, if New England loses against us, they lose the No. 1 seed for good (but we don't clinch unless JAX loses), but moreover, New Englands risks the Wildcard Bye. Because if the JAX wins out (they play HOU, @SF and @TEN) then JAX (and us) will be ahead of New England if they lose against us but win their remaining two games.

    Naa, wait until the AFCCG for that one!

    Of course, I have to give credit where credit is due. The guy who did it was completely honest when he was arrested. It made me laugh. “I’m drunk. I’m stupid. I’m a Pats fan.”


    (of course, once he sobered up and heard the charges, he pled not guilty.)

    Great the Steelers get a pissed off Pats squad after two weeks of brutal attrition games.

    Just won't be surprised if the Steelers have very little left in the tank next week.

    if its any consolation, the Patriots' record after a loss (.776) is virtually identical with their typical regular season record in general (.766): http://blog.masslive.com/patriots/20...s_patri_1.html

    That was the worst game I've seen TB play. Damn, I enjoyed it too. What worries me is there speed at RB. Ravens got to edge all night and if Pats have success then it will open up passing game. Hayward didn't play last year so hopefully he can get pressure up the middle. Obviously Watt didn't play either so maybe this year we finally get to Marcia.

    Holy crap!!!... you are right.

    Let’s say we beat the Taperiots... and, even if we lose to the Texans or Browns, we would still end up 13-3.

    The Taperiots and Jaguars can only get to 12-4.

    But, because the Taperiots lost to 3 AFC teams and the Jaguars only lost to two AFC teams, the Jaguars would hold the tie-breaker over the Taperiots... and would get the #2 seed.

    So, assuming we win on Sunday... Go Jaguars!!!
