I'm Off, and Quick Defensive Key Match-ups

Good evening everyone. I'm about to head out for the game. I'll miss watching the game at home and chatting with everyone, but I'll survive. I was going to take my telephoto camera and try to take some good pictures, but my point-n-shot will have to do because of the weather. I'll give you a recap when I get home and probably dry.

I feel much better about this game than I did earlier this week. The key areas I'll be focusing when our defense is on the field will be mostly on our defensive line. If they can hold and get pressure it should keep things simple for our secondary. The weather tonight is lower 50's upper 40's and the chances of rain keeps dropping to later in the night. If the rain holds off then it should just be a good football weather in January.

Other than the defensive line the one-on-one match-up I'll keep my eye on is Ken Lucas. We've been getting on his case the big plays he's been giving up lately. With the Cardinals fierce passing attack he needs a good game.

The last main matchup will the Julius Peppers. He will be drawing double teams quite a bit, but I would love to see Peppers bust a big game tonight for the playoffs.

Sorry its short, but I've been traveling and getting ready for the game. See you all tomorrow.
