What were they trying to do last night ? They didn't blitz very much and rushed threw a lot and were giving the receivers a lot of cushion. What made them think that defense would work against Tom?

They play zone.

Tom Brady eats zone for breakfast, lunch, dinner.

The end.

They blitzed 6 times. Brady was 6 for 6 for 108 yards or some shite and a TD.

Iirc he was 36 for 39 on actual passed balls (removing drops and throw aways).

It's what they do, has not faired well against the Pats though. Almost every time Brady has played them they spread them out and force their LBers to cover or show where they're rushing from. And I believe they also had 2 rookies out there.

One of the most fascinating things in sports to me is the Steelers running the 3-4. They have since 82. The 3-4 has nothing to do with their 70s run they started running it after the run.
