NEPatriotsDraft is a must-read during the draft season for sure, but this guy's done his research for today's game. Gives a ton of credit to the Seahawks and actually makes the matchup sound tough for his own team.

Excellent write up.

I expect Marshawn to have a big day. I'm gonna say up around 150ish.

Yeah, Lynch has passed the century mark against tougher defenses than this. He'll get his yards today.

That was a great article! Of all the information, what hit home most was the reminder of New England's interest in Big Red this offseason. What a relief he signed with us, Seattle doesn't get a lot of great players that want to stay here. Much respect for his decision.

FIFY

I found it interesting that the article theorized that NE's defense could stop Lynch, but might have trouble against our WRs, whom we all disparage weekly.

Also good to know that NE's defense has problems against scrambling QBs. Wilson needs to get outside instead of fading straight back, and either find the holes in the zones, or use his legs to good effect. Also nice to know they have had trouble against TEs....we need to get ours involved.

NE is missing Hightower and their starting safety, so it might be smart for us to attack their secondary with play action early, as they will be heavily playing the run.
