J-Wall Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 We better be prepared for the rushing attack. its obvious that's what these teams will do. None of them have huge threats at WR or TE so I'm not too worried about them throwing on us. Unless we start letting the sacks slip away like in the past and the QB can run freely or find someone wide open down field. #Riseup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top Flight Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Getting an early lead is going to be extra important in the divisional round against one of these teams. Worst case scenario is that one of these teams gets a lead and starts pounding the rock with the likes of Peterson, Lynch, or Morris.Oh god no..

FalconsAboveBoard Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Yep, whatever team we face will come there with the expectation of running the ball down our throats 30 times for 200 yards and 2 or 3 TDs . . Marshawn Lynch, Adrian Peterson, and Alfred Morris are all top backs in the league. . . let alone the best three in the NFC. . . To boot, they all have QBs that are mobile, effective when mobile, will scramble, will run, and will buy time if flushed or pressured. Our pass defense is good, and nope, none of these teams present passing threats to us. Neither have top flight WRs or TEs either as you mentioned but they can definitely open that up using the threat of their rushing attack and athletic QBs. .

FalconsAboveBoard Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 SEA maybe the most well-rounded of the three imho because WAS weakness is their pass defense and MIN weakness may be their pass offense or defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSalmon Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 We had a dominant running game going into our last 3 playoff appearances. That worked out well for us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
