Sound familiar?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/5h5QXY8DpePhXcdahm\/giphy.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(man cover-1 \u201crat\u201d scheme &#8211; single-high safety, robber in the middle of the field)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Through the first two games of the season, the Lions ran either cover-1 or cover-3 in their secondary on 73 percent of their opponents passing plays, meaning there was one single-high safety at the backend of the coverage.<\/p>\n<p>In New England, the Patriots ran a single-high coverage 62 percent of the time through the first two weeks of the season, according to Pro Football Focus.<\/p>\n<p>There are a few differences, such as the Lions\u2019 willingness to go with a split-safety coverage (cover-2) on 13 percent of their snaps on defense. The Patriots hardly ever play straight cover-2 only lining up in that coverage on one percent of opponents passing plays this season.<\/p>\n<p>But even Patriots head coach Bill Belichick couldn\u2019t deny the similarities between the two defenses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, there are similarities,\u201d Belichick said.<\/p>\n<p>Belichick noted that the sample size is much smaller for Patricia in Detroit than it was during his six seasons as the Patriots\u2019 defensive coordinator, and as a result, Patricia hasn\u2019t put on tape all of the things that he did in New England.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.giphy.com\/media\/8mdRc3NoQmYbYyZRaT\/giphy.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(cover-3 zone scheme)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, the coach is fully aware that Patricia could pull out more of his old team\u2019s tricks on Sunday, \u201cdoes he have those things? Yeah. Is he capable of doing them? Yes. Have they all been done? Not to this point,\u201d said the Pats coach.<\/p>\n<p>The question is will the familiarity with Patricia\u2019s defense, a scheme that the Patriots offense goes against in practice every day, help them on Sunday?<\/p>\n<p>Rob Gronkowski doesn&#8217;t think so as the Pats tight end said you can&#8217;t bank on the opponent doing the same thing every week.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You just never know what you&#8217;re going to get,&#8221; the tight end said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You never know the game plan. You have to prepare for everything.\u00a0It doesn\u2019t matter what you see if you know what\u2019s coming &#8212; it doesn\u2019t matter unless you go out there and execute.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Patriot players might be downplaying the impact of their familiarity with Patricia&#8217;s coverage schemes, but the tape suggests they&#8217;ll be looking in the mirror at a defensive philosophy that they&#8217;ve faced many a time on the practice fields behind Gillette Stadium.<\/p>\n<p>Although execution will ultimately decide the final score, the new Lions head coach would have to completely change his philosophy over the last six-plus seasons to take the Patriots by surprise on Sunday night.<\/p>\n<p>And it&#8217;s not just the fact that the Patriots understand Patricia&#8217;s tendencies, after all, with the amount of game planning the Patriots do they know just about every opponent&#8217;s go-to schemes.<\/p>\n<p>The advantage for the Patriots offense this week will be hundreds and hundreds of reps against a similar defense at practice every day.<\/p>\n<p>But as Gronk put it, that all means nothing if Tom Brady and company don&#8217;t execute at a high-level.<\/p>\n<p><em>For all CLNS Patriots Videos\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/channel\/UCVbz7gN6HGoBXXkhIWMd3Ww\">SUBSCRIBE to our CLNS Media YOUTUBE Channel<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>For the most in depth and comprehensive player and game analysis check out Patriots All-22 with host and Patriots beat reporter Evan Lazar.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/patriots-all-22-new-england-patriots-nfl-game-footage\/id1272925236?mt=2\">Listen and Subscribe HERE<\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Get the inside scoop on the Patriots every week on CLNS Media\u2019s Patriots Beat Podcast with host Mike Petraglia.
