If Chandler Jones plays Sunday but is limited because of his ankle, what kind of trickle down effect do you think it will have on the defense? Should he only be used to passing downs to rush Flacco?
That’s certainly possible. If he is limited and they need to manage his snaps I think we’ll see the return of Jermaine Cunningham. I know Justin Francis has played a bunch lately, but I think Cunningham should be ready to explode if given the chance.
Even if Jones is a full go I expect we’ll see Cunningham more this week.

One of the other changes the Patriots made around midseason was an increase in blitzes. In their first eight games, the Patriots blitzed on 16.6 percent of pass plays, and sent a big blitz (six or more) only 2.5 percent of the time.* Since Week 10, the Patriots have blitzed on 32.0 percent of pass plays, sending a big blitz 7.9 percent of the time. The Patriots’ defense got stronger by sending more pass pressure: 7.1 yards per play with four pass rushers, 6.5 with five pass rushers, and 5.9 with six or more.
