Will Tom Brady keep his composure Sunday against intense defense?
The key here for the Patriots will be to play conservative, safe football with limited risks in order to avoid being taken advantage of by Seattle’s defense. They aren’t a crew that you can make many mistakes against and get away with it, and even Brady will be subject to their ballhawking abilities. New England’s going up against the No. 1 passing defense in the league, so running the ball and controlling the clock will be instrumental to a Patriots victory.
They have four extremely capable running backs, and should utilize a three or even four-headed monster in order to keep a fresh runner in at all times.
From the bruising LeGarrette Blount to the shifty Shane Vereen, New England’s backs are more than capable of putting up some solid numbers, despite the Seahawks being a top-five team against the run.
