lancerman Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Also as far as playmakers, Gronk can and has eaten up some very good defenses by himself. Also the Patriots don't have Brown/Bell level skilled players, but they are so diverse with Amendola, Cooks, Hogan, Mitchell, White, Burkhead, Gisillee, that they can spread defenses thin and keep them guessing enough to wear them out.

Broncofan Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 1 minute ago, lancerman said: I think Jax is at a massive disadvantage compared to Denver one because it is in Gillette and two because Mile High is independently probably one of the top 3 best homefield advantages in the league. That's a key diff for sure - the 2 big factors that make JAX's chances on O better than DEN 2015 - Bortles is mobile, and Fournette (if healthy). He's not accurate at all, but he's probably 5-10x more difficult to play against than Peyton-corpse was. CJ Anderson was nails for us, but he wasn't the workhorse with breakaway potential that Fournette represents...when healthy. It's a big blow if Fournette's not 100 percent for next week, though.

Thing is I trust Belichick more than any coach in the league to limit Fournette healthy or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
