Belichick Breakdowns '16

Right below that link on patriots.com is this one showing the Edelman TD with the Floyd block, as narrated by whoever was announcing the German broadcast.

It's positively Wagnerian. At one point you can hear one of the announcers exclaim, "Ein Monster Block!!"

Interesting that they didn't highlight the Edelman TD, didn't even mention it.

I'm guessing that's because there's nothing special about it from an offensive scheme point of view. Miami positioned themselves poorly on the play, Brady and Edelman saw that and took advantage of it, Floyd came up and did his job.

At least that's my take. People who actually know football may beg to differ.

 

[Van Everyman]

I mostly want to hear him say, in his subtle and often understated way, exactly what he thinks of that goddamn block by Floyd.

Instead we got a shot, in his subtle and understated way, at Suh getting turned around on the Blount TD at the end.

If you want to take a good shot at Suh, watch his effort on Floyd's TD:

 

[Saints Rest]

I'm not sure there was much he could do. It always drives me crazy when a defensive player going 100mph chasing a play, pushes the pile the wrong way. If Suh throws himself into that pile, all he would have done is push Floyd into the end zone

I'm not totally sure, but if this is correct, it is awesome (edit: if simultaneously horrifying): When Lippet is dazed and being checked by the Dolphins trainer, I think the German announcers say something that sounds like, "Hallo-oh! Miami calling!"

The Texans game is up:

On the McCourty interception that he highlights, is #84 (the TE on that play, Ryan Griffin) open down the middle of the field for a TD? It looks like Harmon was beat there, Osweiler just didn't choose to throw it.

Better late than never

Hopefully we get one more

That last one on the Edelman TD, which showed how Lewis and White first slowed down the edge rush and then ran patterns that cleared out the middle of the field, was particularly interesting to me.

Small (relatively) guys multitasking on the one play, blocking, and then going out on routes and leaving it nicely open in the middle for Edelman. One thing, I was surprised the leadin sound to the bit was different on this one.

 

[tims4wins]

Lewis was wide open for a walk in TD on the Edelman TD. Also Mitchell may have been more open than Hogan on the flea flicker. Did the Steelers cover anyone??

 

[DJnVa]

Is that Mitchell also running free on the flea-flicker? LOL

Nice defense Pittsburgh.
