Went through the All 22. Felt so good. Excellent game all around. That
last drive was a masterpiece.
I thought
Heinicke, although he was off on a couple of throws that could've been picked, not only had a
very good game (and a couple of drops by RSJ and Terry), but showed
improvement in something he wasn't great at before: anticipation.
2 examples of really nice throws displaying that progress in anticipation:
Connection with Milne, in between zone, under some pressure
Another really nice one to Terry
Oline played
really well, and
Larsen held his ground.
He can be
exposed with lack of speed though, as highlighted below:
But he also made some really nice plays, such as this one,
handles the stunt perfectly and keeps looking for guys to block:
Obviously
Allen was excellent. If you're just looking at the box score and thinking the Dline didn't sack Brady, you're missing on just how constantly they pressured him and took away his ability to throw anything downfield (along with pretty good coverage).
Awesome
run stop on 3rd down (leading to the 4th down easily converted, see further below):
Didn't remember
Allen had that kind of pressure on the McCain interception. Had to influence Brady's throw to some extent:
We've been hard on
Fuller, rightfully so, and yes he got
burnt on Evans' TD. But he also made
some nice plays.
Really nice coverage on this one,
he's not a press guy, but with a cussion he has really
good vision and reacts well:
And the traditional
WR screen read, react, TFL:
