I don't see anything completely egregious about last night. In fact, I think it was a blessing in disguise that BB was forced to use two rookie receivers. In the past he's been loathe to do that because of the complexity of the offense and because of Brady's pickiness, so we've seen a long line of used up vets at that position, barely able to outrun coverage.
However, last night, we saw something we haven't seen in forever: separation.
I think that for the most part, as long as you have that, everything else is fixable, catching ability included, and especially running coverage-dictated routes. In the long run (e.g., late season) I think this would really work to the offense's benefit.
I don't think I've seen Brady throw the long ball as much as he did last night, in a long time.
