Great preview from Matt Bowen featuring a ton of X-and-O stuff. I’ve come to expect nothing less and his Super Bowl piece is right on point.
Week 9 against Peyton Manning in early Nov. That was the last time the Patriots defense gave up more than 10 points after the half. This is a very good D that is probably pissed that all the attention is on Seattle’s D. They figure out what you are trying to run and shut it down. You’d have to like the Patriots chances if they are ahead, tied or within one score of SEA at the half. Conversely, putting aside the miracle comeback against GB, this SEA team is not built to overcome leads. Thoughts?
I think this is a good sign that once this defense locks in on an offense, they do a pretty good job. But I don’t think it necessarily means Seattle is going to get shutdown in the second half regardless. They’re a very crafty offense that can make something out of nothing better than anyone. The defense will have to get locked in quickly and stay locked in until the clock hits zero to keep Wilson et al in check.
If there’s any player on the Seahawks that can ruin another Patriots’ Super Bowl like Justin Tuck did twice for the Giants, it’s Bennett. He will find advantageous matchups against both Patriots guards (Dan Connolly and Ryan Wendell). If the Patriots don’t account for Bennett on every play, they will be in trouble offensively.
Must-read preview from Bedard, with this line jumping out at me as one of the underrated keys.

When the Patriots lined up against a defense showing a “closed”, single-high defense this season they passed the ball 57% of the time and gained 7.7 yards per attempt with Tom Brady throwing a league-best 20 touchdowns with only two interceptions. His favorite targets against the single high look were Brandon LaFell (65 targets), Julian Edelman (61) with Rob Gronkowski only third by number of targets, though he did contribute eight touchdowns.

Enjoyed this read from Barnwell as it’s what we all invariably do when we initially look at a matchup. “Who beat them and how” and “Can we do it”. Of course, each game is its own particular monster, so the carryover isn’t always transferable, but it’s fun to play the game nonetheless.
