    Kidnap Brady before he gets to the stadium.
    I can't run no more
    With that lawless crowd
    While the killers in high places
    Say their prayers out loud
    But they've summoned, they've summoned up
    A thundercloud
    They're going to hear from me - Leonard Cohen

      Oh, and answers like, "Scoring more points than they do." are not acceptable!

        Would that be enough?

          Run the ball behind our dominant offensive line to eat up the clock and keep the ball away from the Patriots offense.

              Throw it on them in 5 wide
              Swede: My expertise in this area is extensive. The essential difference between a "battleship" and an "aircraft carrier" is that an aircraft carrier requires five direct hits to sink, but it takes only four direct hits to sink a battleship.

                  Haven't seen enough of them to know what needs to be done - but saw enough of our performance in Detroit to know that the solution starts with 'getting stuff fixed' rather than worrying about what the opponent can do!

                    Really though I'm concerned about our defense this game and that's usually not the case. NE's offense looks like a classic west coast offense since losing Moss. They make a living working the middle of the field with guys like Woodhead, Welker, and their beloved rookie TE's. I expect we'll hide in nickel for nearly the entire game and pray that Hawk and Bishop can hold up in coverage. I'm think Jarius Wynn will see some action as we are going to need all the pass rush we can get!

                    On offense you can be sure that Belichick is going to have a scheme and gameplan tailored to take away all our fun. If there is a game that we can benefit from running in its this one. The Pats major weakness is their front seven. The rookie CB McCourty is already being called a shutdown corner and will probably see action against Jennings. A week ago I would have said this had the makings of a shootout. After last week I'm less confident in the Packers' ability to score.

                      I'm having a difficult time imagining any way the Packers could pull this one out.

                        Personally, I'd like to see them line up in a 4-3 and just turn Raji loose try to penetrate up the middle. Face pressure is supposedly the name of the game vs Brady.

                        Wood will need to be on his game underneath, I think.

                          The key is to get to him and hit him a few times. We cannot give him as much time as teams have been giving him! He has been in a clean pocket and has had all day to throw the last couple of games, due to the great blocking of his o-line.
