Daboll and ST have been saving something.

[LABILLBACKER]

The only thing our special teams have been saving is "playing well".....

* Flea flicker

* Fake FG

* Fake Spike

 

Whatever it is, we’ll see it tomorrow.

I would save it for the Playoffs

[thebandit27]

In their 2 other nationally televised games, they've run trick plays.

 

I would expect one today.

Actually I think we simply go back to our jet sweep package that we haven’t used in 3 weeks !!! Although I think the wrinkle is we throw out of it.

We don't need no tricks.........just come out and kick them in the teeth and when you think they couldn't possibly beat their ass anymore, beat them again for good measure.

 

THAT is how you win games........old school.

Expand  

Actually old school isn’t exactly right although we need to run it. The Boston channel said teams running the ball on the Pats do it best with 3 WR on the field. Not with smash mouth.

Actually they do. Win and we go into the playoffs with our tails high. Lose and we will still be associated with " ya, but....."

 

Keep it simple and do what has worked well so far. Just don't lose cos we got too cute

You don't think Belichick planted that in the news to mess with McD? 8D chess, y'all

No it’s based on statIstics by formation !!!!! For instance they are best against I form and next best against 2 WR plus 1 TE split wide.

I think we played our best football when McD told the team to play fearless. They have clinched a playoff berth. Playing fearless means play loose, have fun and throw everything at them. If we lose, we’re still going to playoffs. If we win, Pats need to LOSE to Dolphins. Have fun with this game and give BB a taste of his own medicine.

Half of their strategery is getting people to think they have some Jedi mind tricks. They don’t. It still about blocking and tackling. Line up, play better football and don’t give up the big or dumb play (like a blocked punt) and you will beat them.

I'm gonna guess McDermott didn't read the news and will base his game plan on actual film and strategy.

Yes, I was mocking the folks that overcredit BB's genius.   Apparently too well, based on the responses.

You outdid yourself. That's giving 110%

I hate this line of thinking.  Teams outsmart themselves when playing the Pats*, trying to be cute,

 

Just play your game and beat them.  Don't build them up to be something special where you need to pull out all the stops to win.

Expand  

It would be practice for when when we are dominating the playoffs.
 Never show them the whole thing, just enough to keep them on their toes.

 and there is a fine line to outsmart yourselves.

Dawkins trick play TD.  I will say that makes this thread a winner.  Case Closed.
