Okay, lets assume those of us calling for a balanced attack that eats up the clock aren't advocating a return to the single wing (Yes, that was brilliant sarcasm crazy, pat yourself on the back for your insight).

Rather, we are advocating a balanced attack that takes shots both in the 10-15 yard range and deep down the field. But relies on a run game that, hopefully, runs straight at their LB's to minimize their pursuit ability. Draw them down and then go over them. - Daseal, mixing in a short pass is fine but, again, IMO, that plays into the strength of their defense, the LB's and fast corners. Plus it keeps the plays in front of Harrison and lets him play to his strength rather to than to his weakness which is deep coverage.

Trick plays, gadget plays - these work against undisciplined teams with poor pursuit. Further, spreading the field and relying on the passing game, as someone else said puts most of the offense on Campbell. He has to make the right reads play in and play out. While I like JC and think he is bound for great (not just good) things - I am not confident that he is, at this point, exerienced enough to figure out all the schemes Belicheck can throw against him. That leads to turnovers. Chuck and duck didn't work for Spurrier (or any other coach) and I seriously doubt it's gonna work Sunday.

Also, one of the reasons their defense is so good, IMO, is b/c it is well rested. NE leads the league in time of possesion.

Amazing - NE scores points by controlling the clock and winning the turnover battle. I wonder if JG has ever tried that??
