Summary

3:50 - Dick LeBeau's defense has a variety of schemes that could give Tom Brady and the Patriots trouble. Will the entire offensive unit be up for the challenge? 12:43 - Rob Gronkowski was nearly unstoppable the last few games of the regular season. How might the Titans attempt to limit him? 15:40 - While Tom Brady is the front runner to win league MVP, he has had his share of flaws this season. Will he return to elite form vs. the Titans? 17:38 - The Titans offense has been ineffective at times this season, but they have a mobile quarterback in Marcus Mariota, a powerful back in Derrick Henry and a talented tight end in Delanie Walker. How should the Patriots approach these offensive weapons? 24:20 - Sure, the Patriots' focus is on Tennessee, but that doesn't mean we can't take a look at the Pittsburgh Steelers and Jacksonville Jaguars matchup.
