Kickoff: Hobbs from the 11, 18 yd return. Ellis started running east and west when he hit the blocking line - he needed to just punch it into the line and he’d have had another 3-5 yds - if he didn’t skitter through.
1st and 10 NE 29: 3 wide, 2 right, TE left. Play-action pass, Branch, overthrown, incomplete. Deion was in a gap in the zone, and Tommy was trying to lob it to him. Good blocking again. Jax 4-2 nickel.
2nd and 10 NE 29: Shotgun, 3 wide, 2 right, TE flanked left. Pass, Faulk, underneath, 21 yds. Jax was in a 3-3 nickel, the LLB came unblocked - blocking assignment snafu as Watson blew by him and Kaczur doubled the LDE with Mankins. Okay, rewatching in slow motion, Jax sends all three LBs, and Faulk cutting through the line is wide open - for lack of a better name, this looks like a kind of naked screen where you suck all the defenders in on a pass rush, but you don’t have any blockers screening the receiver.
1st and 10 @ 50: No huddle, Shotgun, 3 wide, 2 left, TE flanked right. Strip sack, Tommy recovers, loss of 4 yds. Jax in 3-3 nickel. NE TO - their last.
Now I understand why Gorin is having so much trouble - No.97 for Jax has been the guy driving him back and making life miserable, Reggie Hayward. If I remember right, he had 11 sacks with Denver last season. Poor Brandon is just struggling against a guy who would give anyone fits.
2nd and 14 NE 46: Shotgun, 3 wide, 2 right, TE flanked left. Pass, Branch, post route, incomplete. The infamous disappearing ball play. Watching the ABC replay again, Deion was going to make the end zone if he caught that ball. Trying to lower his re-signing value I guess. Tommy had great protection.
3rd and 14 NE 46: Shotgun, 3 wide, 2 right, TE flanked right. Sacked, 1 yard loss. Jax in a 3-2 dime. Coverage sack, Tommy went down at 5 Mississippi, tackled from behind by the LB whom Faulk picked-up well, he was just thrown off after the LB pushed him back past the edge of the O-line and could manuever.
End of the half.
