That said, I still didn't like what I saw from them in that 4th quarter. Pats adjusted offensively, but Seattle didn't.

They tried to jam them. Simon just couldn't. That is who they kept throwing it at.

I think they could jam one of them but they didn't have the depth to do it to both. It is why Amendola had a pretty good game as well. Plus like I said, Seattle has always allowed the underneath stuff, they just didn't tackle as well as they usually do.

It wasn't Wagner. If you noticed they targeted Wright. That was who Gronk scored the touchdown on. A lot of those Vereen passes were on Wright. They actually tried to avoid Wagner, especially after his pick.
