NFL Videos: Wk 10 Anatomy: Brady's TD Pass to Gronkowski

Cool video, Mayock does a nice job breaking it down. It's nice to see these plays from a coaches tape perspective, it's always interesting to see.

I can't believe what Harrison did, even more cool is how fast Brady then made that decision to go over the top to Gronkowski once he saw Harrison was giving him the time for Gronk to get open.

Wow! Many thanks for a GREAT post. Loved the breakdown. I also can't believe James Harrison's decision to totally remove himself from anything useful on the play.

Harrison must have been thinking it was going to be a screen pass and wanted to disrupt it.

Wow! That was a great analysis. Great film clips, too.
That was a real slick play on Brady's part, adjusting to the situation as he does. Harrison looked like a dope out there.

I can't blame him though.

Great stuff.

The best part of that vid, IMHO, is from 3:14 to 3:18. Brady's staring a hole through Woodhead, but watch Brady's eyes as Harrison breaks off his rush and Brady realizes he can get much more than a dump off.

In man coverage Harrison had to go to Woodhead. That's his job. No defense intentionally leaves a receiver uncovered.

yeah i think if woodhead stayed in to block harrison would definately have been coming. But as he released harrison didn't want to give that quick out because he knew they were blitzing... the problem is he didn't really even go with woodhead he dropped into a sort of no mans land short zone

Awesomely awesome. I love these short videos. NFL has some great stuff if you dig around a bit.

Well while we are Nfl films products, check the ultimate audio from the game.
Make sure you use earphones that cancels out noise from your surrounding.
This is really good.

That was interesting. Talk about woodhead demanding attention. Polamalu crashes in on him and then Harrison tries to cover him thinking a screen.
