Was anyone else screaming for a blitz in the second half? It seems like GW has changed his philosophy so as to only send the front 4 and let the coverage create the turnover, whereas in years past he blitzed on 3/4 of the plays.

Well I did feel the same way and I agree w/ you.Especially with Warner playing injured. We needed to be in his face ALOT more the 2nd half. However...that being said. How often do you think we should blitz Tom Brady?? Cause seriously...if we blitz too often, they'll adjust and burn us for some huge yardage!
Hell we might need to play 10\11 guys back and only rush a few. Maybe we will have to rely on our coverage to strongly defend and "hope" for a turnover. Those are few and far between from a team as good as NE.
