Quote:We don't get much pressure on the passer this year.   So the question is, do we blitz more.   Because if we don't blitz, an elite QB like Rivers will pick us apart.   Unfortunately, if we do blitz, an elite QB like Rivers knows where to go with the ball, and he will still pick us apart.   So we can look forward to Rivers picking us apart no matter what we do. 

 

Therefore, the key to winning the game is our offense.   We need a good day offensively to win this game.   We've got weapons, but a lot of them we haven't even used yet, like Lee and Thomas and Rashad Greene.    We need to get all our weapons involved.  

 

If Blake has a good game, we will win.   If not, Rivers will pick us apart all day.





I agree with this conclusion. If we are to win, I see out offense dominating time of possession and scoring touchdowns, not field goals when we get in the red zone. Keeping Rivers on the bench is key, as is eliminating turnovers.
