21-0 leads at the half still make me really, really nervous. Pats gotta close this one out!

The Texans’ terrific inside and outside zone running game is keyed by the ability of standout center Chris Myers to control the middle of the line and to pick off linebackers on the second level. If the Patriots can keep Myers occupied, it’s going to be very tough for the cutback lanes to open up. Wouldn’t be surprised if the Patriots line up Vince Wilfork right over Myers on early downs, and then move Wilfork around in passing situations. But the Patriots might very well think that Kyle Love, who played well last week following a couple of mediocre games, can do the job himself, and that will allow Wilfork to be impactful in a three-technique role on the outside shoulder of a guard. Both LG Wade Smith and rookie RG Ben Jones are ripe for the taking.

Which two running backs should lead in carries. Or do you think the PATS should utilize all 4 of them. And will all 4 backs return next year.

Clearly Ridley is the number one and Woodhead is the primary passing down/spread back. So the question comes down to Vereen or Bolden, but I see each as having unique skill sets so I think there’s a place for both of them.

As for next year Woodhead’s contract is up, so it comes down to whether or not they think Vereen can take that role. Personally I’d love to see them bring Woodhead back and go into camp with all four running backs. Injuries are too big a factor at that position to discard capable backs.
