I'm sorry, but Tom Brady is a aged, old QB that can't move in the pocket. But they hardly generated a pass rush that would bother him all game. He stood in the pocket and did what he wanted to do the whole game, you can't have that. Dude should have been sacked a few times. Winston was under much more of a pass rush than Brady. SMH

Yeah, and if the offense didn't turn it over 4 times, that gameplan on defense would've been a winning one. They were missing all of their wide receivers. The Saints weren't worried about them getting open.


I may have misread your post. I thought you were calling for more blitzes, but now I think you're just saying the line needed to get more pressure.

I don’t like the fact we brought pressure or rushed 4 with success then we go with a 3 man rush for some god awful reason and give up a touchdown. This is the defensive equivalent of running the wildcat with Ingram when you had Taysum running successfully. Do what you do and don’t get cute. I thought it was SP but that part of him is imprinted on his staff it seems.

Yes, man, the DLine did not generate a decent pass rush all game. That to me is inexcusable against a 85 year old QB.

it was discussed why by the announcers

brady cant read the defense unless it shows itself with the blitz, by not blitzing brady is left not knowing what to expect in coverage so it throws his game off and thats why we won most of the last games we played.

DA strategy of not blitzing is why brady has so little success against us, but to do this you need great line play to get pressure on him and we dont have that. we have good D-line play, but its not great enough to cause havoc only rushing 3

Saints rushed 4, Bucs blocked with 6 plus a RB at times

Davenport, Jordan, Onyemata, and I'm not sure if Payton played, but none them showed up pass rushing wise. And I've seen them have great pass rushing games before against Brady.

I mean I know Jordan then lost a step, but Davenport and others are in their prime.

Not all the time, I saw some of the lineups that TB was in. The Saints just wasn't in a groove pass rushing wise today I guess.
