Belichick believes in doing whatever’s possible to eliminate the opponents’ greatest strength. As record-setting back-to-back 200-yard receiving games attests, Cleveland’s greatest strength is Gordon. But if Tanney has to play, Belichick could elect to play with base personnel (to stop the run) and focus a safety primarily on breakout tight end Jordan Cameron. In Cleveland’s system, Cameron runs a lot of shallow crossing patterns, which would figure to be a security blanket for the untested Tanney. It’d make sense to take that away even if it means leaving Talib alone against Gordon.

We hadn’t seen the vintage Brady consistently until this month with only the agonizing (controversial?) defeat to the Panthers in Week 11 robbing him of just about the perfect month. Stellar comebacks against the Broncos and Texans earned him an honorable mention in the Team of the Month behind Russell Wilson.

Instead of adding a fifth defensive back against all three-receiver packages, the Patriots sometimes subbed out a safety (Duron Harmon/Steve Gregory) in favor of a third cornerback (Kyle Arrington). So while they technically remained in a base defense with four players in the secondary, it had a sub-package element to it.

Nick Caserio, director of player personnel, New England Patriots: He seamlessly took the reins from Scott Pioli as New England’s personnel maven. Although he’s considered to be a little introverted, Caserio’s known to be principled and strong in his evaluations. League-wide perception, though, is that he’s not going anywhere.
