We should expect 200 passes Saturday!

Frank already laying the ground for having to be the counter puncher vs the scary Mike Tyson frothing at the mouth on the opposite sideline. Belicheat is already owning Frank's thoughts and you can just read the words below and see him peeling back the blinds and chewing his nails. Game day is likely to be a disorganized mess of "let's try this triple reverse TY throw back to Carson play we practiced once in the last 3 months, that will work better than running JT for sure".

“Well, I think there are two thoughts there. One is his efficiency, some of that comes with just pure carries – if you get it to him enough he’s going to create big plays. But at the same time we don’t want him to pound his head up against a wall play in and play out,” Reich said. “Again, that goes back to that mix of how much is too much or how much isn’t enough and that’s a game-by-game, really series-by-series feel.”

I figured you’d at least wait for the first pass of the game to start freaking out about not running JT 40+ times. Guess I underestimated you.

Just breathe the shit out, man.

I completely understand. This, to me, is the most meaningful game for the franchise in a long time.

A whole lot of things will be confirmed for better or worse come Saturday.

As for our defense.

Okereke has said they are focusing on the run and will try to force Mac Jones to beat them. Expect lots of TE passes.

If we sit back in that crap zone and let him be comfortable... oh if we do...

I would like to see us try to run the ball to set up the passing game. I then want to see us blitz a lot to try to rattle Jones, he is not Brady! Need to be playing tight man coverage to stop the crossing routes. If we get beat deep then congratulations to Mac Jones, this is not his strength, nor would i say that the Patriots WR's are all that great either.

Kevin Brown had this comment in 'The Fan' that I thought was excellent:

A huge philosophical debate for Frank Reich this week is how long do you stay with your strength if Bill Belichick takes that away? Carson Wentz talked on Tuesday about the feeling out process you get early in games with the Patriots. There’s a fine balance with that and sticking to your scripted game plan, which is an area the Colts have routinely turned into points. Will the Patriots be able to limit Jonathan Taylor, despite having a rather middle of the pack run defense? If so, how will the Colts passing offense handle things? On paper, the Colts top-ranked rushing offense should be able to move it against he Patriots.
