They may not have Bell, but their stable of backs runs deep and does exactly what Bill wants of them. I think we have the advantage when it come to their receivers. Colvin on Edelman is going to be a big matchup. Can't allow the constant 5 yarders over the middle for first downs.

Well...I guarantee that Edelman is not going to have a big day against the Jags!  (He's been on IR all season).  Amendola will be taking most of those over the middle throws (Sometimes Hogan as well).  There is the off chance that Malcolm Mitchell might come off IR for the game, and he also has been known to run slant patterns. 

As a Pats fan, the thing I worry about is the Jags ability to get A gap pressure with 4.  To the extent the Patriots have kryptonite, that is it.  they can adjust to most any defense you throw at them, but pressure up the middle without bringing a 5th rusher is what haunts our dreams.  

(thanks for letting me join by the way.  I won't be a jerk).
