From today's Buffalo News' Jerry Sullivan:
Bledsoe had his worst game as a Bill. He threw for 302 yards, but much of it was garbage. Kevin Gilbride didn't have many answers. So Belichick did know how to stop Bledsoe. Blitz him up the middle, flush him out of the pocket and let the defensive backs maintain coverage.
Didn't I say the same thing at the tailgate?? If we can figure this crap out how come an NFL head coach can't??
For all the education and practice each of us undergoes, the achievment of mastery is ultimately the outcome of a personal quest for understanding.
It only worked because we let it work. Any draws our cut back running would have eaten up NE. If Travis broke a single tackle there was nothing but DBs left on the field.
NE did the same thing to STL last year, twice, and STL was to stupid to run, so were we.
