On Inside on the NFL (NFL Network) Simms said a couple times how it expects the Patriots to keep Wilson in the pocket. He went on to say how everyone knows what Wilson does and the Pats will be ready. He pointed out how that's what the Packers did.
Simms may be a Hawks-hater and he repeated a line that many have before - just keep Wilson contained. Few have succeeded but Green Bay did seem to have success in keeping Wilson contained for most of the game. Personally, I think that there was a lot of things going on in that game that the Hawks won't have to deal with in Glendale. And there is no way the Pats will be able to contain Wilson.
But when I was watching the game I wondered why Wilson didn't start running sooner. Was the plan to stay in the pocket or did the Packers really contain him? And will he run more on the Pats? I suspect he will and they'll plan around it.
