I do think it's going to be a defensive game, and I think we're not going to see long, extended drives.

It feels to me like the defense for both teams have some answers, and that could make it kind of a disjointed feel in terms of rhythm, but I do think defense, at the end of the day, will have a pretty good

He's played in it.
