  • Brady's quietly having a Pro-Bowl year- but the key, looking at the stats is limiting turnovers- the Pats are near the top with a +7, and the Browns limiting big plays on defense. NE's D has been so-so.

  • On D we need to be aggressive, but we don't need to all out blitz. Keep up with the zone blitz to confuse the line and qb.

    On O, as was said, we need to control the ball in a fairly balanced way with high percentage passes and a grind it out run game.

    I would run lot's of 2 TE sets with Moore in the game a good percentage of the time. That will help with the run and bring in another set of hands that can catch those high percentage passes. Moore and Watson can beat the NE backers, so a safety is going to have to help cover them, so we may get a few nice over the top shots to MoMass.

    On special teams, field position. Keep them in the long field most of the game.

    If everybody had like minds, we would never learn.

  • Good player execution and aggressive balanced ball controlling attacks resulting in points more times than not..

    The defense must play solid all the way around, and disguise coverages extremely well any blitzes have to at minimal pressure brady's release or it could be a long day..

    I sense the potential for an upset this sunday for some reason!

    We have been rebuilding since 1964, Why stop now? GO BROWNS!

  • Sign randy Moss and pay him a million dollar bonus if he catches 4 TD passes.

    Head or Gut?

    That's an idea. Although the DB's did OK against the Saints Brady can pick them apart if their off their game even a little. Not turning the ball over, ball and clock control and solid "D" are key.

    Doesn't Belichick hate Mangini because of this whole thing. or this one if they wear the old unis.

  • When the schedule came out in April, I felt the Browns would split these two home games with NE & NY Jets. Mangini is going to go all out in these games, vs his ex-mentor & ex-employer.

    If we can somehow steal this Pats game, I smell a sweep. The NY Jets are not who we thought they were, lol.

    Browns 12

    Pats 7

    Let's bring some noise this Sunday!!!!!!!!

  • Our secondary is going to have to step up big time. If not Brady is going to pass all over us.

  • prescribe lots of zanax to the patriots team. Give them like 8 zanax bars before the game.

    I dont think there is any QB's who can be effective when they are laying on their backside. We need to knock Brady down time and time again. If we are succesful applying pressure on Brady our defense will control the game again.

    Head or Gut?

  • Sign Randy Moss and make him tell us the Patriots tendencies.

  • Get Cribbs involved more... We got too.. he has been an after thought this year in all aspects of the game. The man has talent oozing from him and I hate the fact that our game plan isn't using him more...

    I don't think it's they're not using him enough, it's the fact that other teams are paying extra attention to him now.

  • #3--Win the time of possession by at least 7 minutes. We have to keep Brady off the field.

    Best scenario

    Great, great movie.

  • Just put a ginormous mirror on one of the side of the field: that way, Brady will try to impress everybody by trying to be the first qb to complete a pass to himself.

    GO Browns!
