Coaches Film Is Up

I'm madder than yesterday!
The first questionable call in the Christmas game will probably result in me being banned from family gatherings for about 5 years.

 

I want to see the End Zone View of the long catch at the end of the game Juju did. I think he could have scored if he stayed running down the sideline instead of cutting back towards the middle of the field.

 

That last interception with all the ref watching the jersey pull on Eli!

Or the play Gronk made on the bad throw by Brady after Heyward was being mauled at the LOS!

 

WTF kind of a rush is that?! You just leave the whole middle of the field open on a guy that gets nervous if he has pressure up the middle?

 

You're so right - if Gronk was covered Brady probably could have run 70 yds for a TD in super slo-mo. I wonder how often that happened during the game? Design or blown assignment? Were there even 11 D players on the field?

 

How does he get that wide open?

 

He basically jams the coverage guy and runs past him while he's recovering. It's what he does while complaining about being held on every play when he gets shut down.

He's a huge guy compared to most guys on the field. He's 6'6" and listed at 265. that's a big guy to handle when he lays into you and can run just as fast.

I would have loved to see how Kirkland handled him. He was known to have dropped into coverage a lot and I'd bet he wouldn't have been chucked as easily as Gronk does to these smaller guys...

 

Well thanks to @TerribleTowelFlying for posting it you can see Mitchell is playing super deep(which imo is worthless cause he don't move anyways) and Gay moves from the middle of the field to help on the outside. Both guys on the outside were covered real good not sure why Gay would leave the middle wide open with Gronk coming in? My guess is Marsha moved him with his eyes, but again this is on coaching. You have to be aware of Gronk, Gay or Mitchell.....SOMEONE, needed to be giving Davis help!!!!!

 

This is what I noticed, as well. Gronk breaking free from his man, yet our deep man sliding over to help out on someone who's tightly covered... wha?

 

Its like he took 2 steps back in slow motion and let him slide right by him after a half attempt to jam him.

 

You got a lot of balls asking that

 

It was a good play by Brady. He looks to his right and give a little pump fake which makes Gay shade that way.

 

And this is why we shouldn't play zone.....nobody has a clue

 

Not taking anything away from Marsha it was a very good play but didn't it look to easy? I mean it wasn't like there was anyone within 30 yards of gronk, right?

 

Well, yeah. But he also got a free release. A receiver that big needs to be disprupted/jammed at the LOS. This wasn't happening consistently with Gronk. I get that he's a big dude, but at least try. Gronk swatted away Davis like he was a housefly.

 

Actually I mean the pass interference called on Burns against Gronk. I think that drive ended with a field goal around 5:00 in the 4th. I didn't see, just wondering how much of a PI it was.

 

Yeah Hargrave took the wrong side and should have went to the inside shoulder. Taking the outside allowed the guard to pin him up against the tackle and limits the options for Tuitt. At the snap their center never looks Hargrave way he is going dbl team on Heyward the whole way
I can't tell because I'm on my phone if bud's man has his arm locked or not but Bud should have faked outside and cut back inside to draw the guard away from the dbl team or he gets inside pressure.

All in all this was the perfect set up to get interior pressure with Hargrave blowing up the pocket but was executed badly.

 

Thanks TTF, I can see why the dude threw the flag from his perspective, but the jersey grab didn't look anything like the Rogers one at the end of the game or the arm pull on Bryant's TD

 

Correct, making it so much more easier for Marsha......
