Betting wise, take the Bolts. But this probably the toughest game in history to predict. The more I read objective articles, listen to radios and rewatch some of the games of both teams this year, reading AFC East and AFC West fans comments (knowledgeable fans, not haters), looking from the Pats' perspective the more I think we're the worst opponent the Patriots can have in this playoff. Worst matchups for them. The only matchup they have a bit of advantage is they have White and Burkhead, 2 very good receiving RBs, and we gave up a lot of those plays to this type of RBs this year. But I'll take that. Rather giving catches to RBs than WRs and TEs. We're 1 of the top teams defending TEs. Not a good news for Gronk.
History, like always, is on Belichick and the Patriots' side. They've never gone 1-and-done in the playoff, never loss the 1st playoff game. Rarely lose the divisional game. It's the Championship game that they can lose sometimes, with just 1 week to rest and prepare/plan. Never loss a snow game, and the margin of victory in those snow games are not that close, including a 61 - 0 win vs. TEN. They rarely lose at home in playoffs, haven't loss at home this season.
They were dominating in 2003 and 2004 playoffs with a consistent running game (Antowain Smith and a not too washed-up Cory Dillon). This year they have that with Michel. They haven't have a running game this consistent since 2004, not only the RB but also the OL in run blocking. Shaq Mason dominate inside. They avg. 5+ ypc running between the guards, avg. 6+ ypc running to the right side behind the RT and James Davilin, probably the best blocking fullback this year. This always has been the recipe for success in the postseason.
So Brady this Brady that but it's their running game that gets overlooked by many. A diminishing Brady is basically just the game manager version of Brady early in his career. Doesn't force things, lay back and let the running game and defense take care of the game, manage the game, clutch when needed. The major difference is this NE defense is inferior to the ones that he had in those years. And Flores LB coach who calling their plays is busying interviewing head coach position with teams. They still can turn up 2 levels in the playoffs, but their defenses in those early SB runs had more good players, better role players, better veterans. This defense is younger and more athletic but made a lot of mistakes.Last edited by vinabolt; 01-12-2019, 07:59 AM.Follow me and my wife here: https://twitter.com/gossip_lady_se

I posted this on the (doomed) Chargers forum too. My neighbors are Pats fans. My neighbors at my old house were.....you guessed it.....Pats fans. My old neighbors were tolerable but my new neighbors, and by new I have lived here 10 years, are ASSHOLES! Over and above their love for all things BAAAAASTAN, the wife really is a piece of work aka: ASSHOLE on the most high! You know the type......."I'm superior so fuck you peons" When all she really is, is a closet drunk. ANYway you get the picture.
JUST ONCE I want to see them outside and have them see me, even if no words are exchanged....I just want to see the look in their eyes knowing that they LOST TO MY TEAM!!!!!
And after we win I may do something juvenile like hanging a Bolts jersey in every window that faces their house. THAT would be EPIC!!!!!
Win me this one boys........
