AFC Championship could swing on Phillips’s schemes
Lots of good stuff on Pats-Broncos in here from Bedard, including some advice for Wade Phillips. Phillips’ approach in this one will be immediately apparent and the more curves he can throw at Brady/Belichick to decipher initially the more possessions they can buy their offense. If managed correctly that could take it down to the wire. But Brady/Belichick will figure it all out eventually.

Patriots-Broncos, Panthers-Cardinals breakdowns | The MMQB with Peter King
Always enjoy Andy Benoit’s detailed x-and-o breakdowns. Here he suggest a number of ways the Broncos could defend the Patriots, but from listening to Greg Bedard on Felger and Mazz this week it sounds like Wade Phillips will just keep doing what he does and everyone in the NFL knows it.
Yeah, I think the Patriots playing a clean game as close to maximum health as they can get is all that really matters. Scheme/gameplan will be pretty straightforward, the DBs have seen these receivers before. Just have to get everyone on the same page.
On a side note I love how the Broncos are already talking trash about Brady. Did they learn nothing from the Rocky movies? I just don’t understand teams who feel the need to go saying shit the week before a game. Totally unnecessary.
