With the Falcons up 28-12 and 8:31 left in the fourth quarter, New England linebacker Dont’a Hightower blew through Atlanta’s protection, sacked Matt Ryan, and stripped the football from him, forcing a turnover. New England went down to score, and that play was a big momentum shift that sparked the furious Patriots comeback.

I asked Devonta Freeman if Dont'a Hightower is his man on the strip-sack: "No." Won't give details. Just keeps saying Hightower made a play. — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) February 6, 2017

Kyle Shanahan says yes, that actually was Devonta Freeman's guy. Hasn't gotten to talk to him yet. Matt was expecting him to be picked up. — Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) February 6, 2017

Sorry, but that's Freeman's man. Even if it wasn't originally, if you're the back and you see a LB rushing the QB past the line of scrimmage you pick it up unless it's a screen play specifically called for you.

hard to try and pinpoint one particular play in an epic choke.
bottom line, they were up 28-3 and lost 34-28.

in a close game there is always a number of plays that come into question.
not saying Freeman didn't get owned.. cause he did.
but if he is used a scapegoat...
SAD

a "top 3 in the league" back should have probably picked up a guy screaming towards his qb uncontested

Yeah, but running the ball there keeps the odds in your favor considerably.
