Something that kept coming back to me when I watched the horrible game was that whenever Brady pointed to a player at the line of scrimmage, identifying them as a rusher or whatever, that player almost ALWAYS dropped back into coverage.
It's almost like the Jets defense changed their defense based on what Brady was calling at the line and who he was pointing at.
So my question is this... is Brady too transparent at the line of scrimmage? As a defense, if the QB is pointing at you warning that you're about to pass rush, the last thing you should do is pass rush. Therefore, a defense could actually use all that pointing and coverage identifying against you.
Perhaps Brady and the Pats need to rethink what they do at the line of scrimmage to better hide what it is they have identified?
