Our Defense v. the Pats Offense

Everyone keeps talking about how the Pats offense is unstoppable and that our Defense won't be able to hold them back. However, I say look at last year. The 9-0 Indianapolis Colts come to Dallas with what I would say is an offense just as good if not better than the Patriots. Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne vs. Randy Moss and Donte Stallworth? I think I'll take the former every time. Regardless of that point, the offenses are very comparable talent wise and production wise.

Last year our defense held the Colts to 14 points. I think I could make the case that our defense is better this year than last year. We are minus Anthony Henry, which is a big deal, but we have Hamlin this year and the combo of Spencer & Ellis over there at the outside linebacker. I think it could be very likely that our defense plays very well tomorrow and slows down this Pats offense. I think we can hold them under 24 and then score 24 ourselves, giving us a 24-(17,20,21) win.

Thoughts about our defense?
