No way Keller is catching all those balls last night with Rodney on him. IMO, Pats will have real problems vs. teams with pass catching tight ends (like Pitt) because we don't have anyone who can cover the underneath middle now that Rodney's out. Other teams will copy what the Jests did last night.
The question is how do we counter it? The 3rd and 15 conversion jumps out at you but the truth is that guy killed us all night repeatedly. Whenever they needed it it was there. Kind of reminded me of the 2006 AFCCG vs. Indy in the 2nd half when Clark absolutely torched Eric Alexander the whole 2nd half with Rodney out. So what's the answer? More blitzing? Should we have brought big time pressure on that 3rd and 15 in OT? And who is being groomed to take over Rodney's role in coverage on the TE's?
