Sorry - why is McDaniels being mentioned here?
Unless the play involved only Harper's route and McDaniels was telling Brady 'i'm the ****ing OC you ****ing heave that **** to Harper in double coverage you little *****' then this isn't on McDaniels.
Brady wanted to put the dagger in their hearts and took a risk. I wasn't a fan of the choice but I think I get what he was trying to do.
It was the classic "go for the kill shot at midfield come hell or high water" call. Some of that was on Brady, but if you look, there was no one to throw the ball to on the right and both Harper and Gronk went deep on the left. Brady should have just chucked it out of bounds, but it was still poor play design (if no one ran the wrong route) and a stupid call.
