I think their pass D has suffered injuries, and again, I'd like to see the injury report for this coming game.
I just like their safety combo. I think that can cut off the deep routes from Worthy. We'll be living in the intermediate and shallow again, as we have all season. Do we trust that against Devin White and Lavonte David.

Hopkins is exactly the kind of guy we need to counter their pass defense. I'll be interested to see how up to speed he is Monday.

Kareem's on his last legs, man. He was holding his midsection halfway through this week's victory.
Reid's gotta rotate RBs or Kareem's not going to last for Pacheco to return.
