Hatszel Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Is it just me or did it seem that our defense played very vanilla. We didn't seem to create pressures like the last few games and stayed with 4 man rushes. I wonder if we did not extend our game plan in preparation for the playoffs and not show too much seeing that even with a win we would more than likely be a 5th seed.

DJB Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 (edited) Brady typically picks apart teams that blitz because their entire offence is predicated on quick dinking and dunking passes. You need to get pressure with your front 4 to beat him Edited December 22, 2019 by DJB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDH Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Yep. Brady and the Pats have struggled with the blitz for the past 8 or so weeks. Bills rush 4 lost of the game while Brady sits back and has a cup of coffee before throwing the ball. No idea how that was their game plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesla03 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 No. Brady just never loses at home. and in games that matter they are almost unstoppable at home with something to play for. We also got dominated in TOP. Offense couldn't sustain drives any top defense will crumble when they are fatigued. these players aren't robots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sig1Hunter Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Yeah, that wasn’t the defense that I expected to see. Now we get to hear Pats* ball washers all week long. We needed more pressure on the old man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if they were so confident that they are going to beat Houston that they didn't want to show any of their cards to a team they think they'll be playing again in a few weeks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbuffs Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Would have liked to see more blitzing from us but, honestly the Pats offense was throwing everything they could at us to keep us off balance. We missed too many tackles today, that was the difference for me. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo_Stampede Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 I'm surprised they played so soft in secondary today. Maybe it was vanilla. They definitely didn't have many pressure packages installed for today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFrazier gave Brady little to think about all night. Way too predictable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing I can think of is that they're in full Texans mode and were willing to take their chances against Brady. McD was much more subdued that usual and not many players had smoke coming out of their ear holes. If this wasn't the case, however, I'd be really pissed with the conservativeness. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
