Also-the Cooks bomb down the middle that McCourty broke up is much more a kudos to the @Patriots and their coverage disguise (video coming from Get Up this morning) than it was Goff being so late like all think he was. Credit the D on it! #SuperBowl53
Last nights game swung on 2 plays:
-Gronk catch down seam. Pats waited till they got cov they wanted-pounced
-Goff INT to Gilmore. @Patriots timed blitz off play-clock perfectly. Never left Goff time to check play.
Belichick game plan even better than I thought.
-early Downs played 6 guys at the line of scrimmage. Allowed most guys to get 1 on 1’s and penetrate up front. Hightower could play slow at the 1 MLB spot and respect play-action
-3rd down rush pkg had 1 DL on field
Sooo the team that played more man-to-man defense than anyone in the #NFL this year, naturally comes out in #SuperBowl53 and runs 80-90% zone coverage???!?!? @Patriots
The @Patriots won this game off adjustments and timing. The adjustment on that 4tg qtr drive to have first play in base D by @RamsNFL go tempo-and run same play 3 times in a row. Score. The timing to run their 0 blitz, once, all game, and get the pick.
The @Patriots controlled the ball all game. Owned T.O.P to get @RamsNFL DL as tired as possible. Than went empty at the perfect moment-knowing the rush wouldn’t be what it was early on-3 straight plays outta empty. Zone=check down Man=Gronk shot
Goff needs to play way more boring-take completions. Low to high-get ball out. Throws are there.
