Pats D snap 1st half

 

[Snake Eyes]

Thanks all. Special thanks for the OP for making this thread.
I'm going to upload the Brandon Tate 2010 season vids (one from my youtube account). Giving the roster discussion on this site, it's only fair.

Also, I'll use this to post links of some Pats games this season (if I have time) and links from my uploads of weekly Mike Brewster vids (cause I'm a homer )

Thank you very much for your hard work, it's appreciated. Any chance you can load vids of Georgia? I have a feeling Brewster is going to be gone long before we get a crack at him and Ben Jones from GA is going to be our center of the future.

I'll prob download few UGA games and get on them after the season. It will depend on the availability of College Football games online.

Pats O snaps 1st half

 

[convertedpatsfan]

Great stuff ninja.

Burn all film of that last game though.

Ninja, many thanks for doing all this hard work.

When you look at this in depth, it's obvious that there were a lot of rush 4, drop 7 vanilla, and the backers were in zone or robber coverage and the nickel was in heavy man coverage, almost as if this were designed to place a lot of stress on the backfield, to see who's doing their job and who's not. You have different combinations at safeties, Sanders-Meriweather, Chung-Brown, Chung-Ihedigbo, Brown-Ihedigbo.

And to expand on that last point:

1. Sanders/Meriweather
2. Sanders/Meriweather
3. Sanders/Meriweather
4. Chung/Brown
5. Chung/Brown
6. Chung/Ihedigbo
7. Chung/Ihedigbo
--halftime--
8. Chung/Brown
9. Brown/Ihedigbo
10. Chung/Brown
11. Brown/Ihedigbo
12. Brown/Ihedigbo

(The number tells which drive it was)

Pats O 2nd half Snaps


2nd half of Pats D might be either up tonight or tomorrow morning. (Too damn tired right now)

 

[Patspsycho]

Looking at the O snaps for the first half, on the 3rd and 1 blowup of BJGE that killed our first drive- looking at it again. I was wrong- it looks like Morris motioned out of I Queen slot and the line crashed right to anticipate it. BJGE cut back for the hole that gaped at RG, but for some weird reason, Gronk chose to combo with Yeatman on the DE and that allowed the WILB an unimpended path towards BJGE in the backfield (where he was blown up for a loss). Had Gronk chosen to wham the WILB instead of combo'ing, this would have easily been a 10-12 yard gain because Vollmer was already stoning the Sam (on the 2nd level) and that left only the single high safety to cover the highway that was opening up through the RG gap.

Depends on my school work and such.

thanks for video. Good to see that when I can't see the games much.

Unfortunatly video was a bit slow loading; so I gave up after two (at work and can't sit here the whole time with video spooling).

One thing I caught. Woodhead on a cut back that he ran from right hash to the left sideline: He ran the whole way with the ball under the right arm. ????

I thought he was pretty much a vet now and knew enough to move the ball over to the side from pending opposing contact. (especially if that other side is the SL side as well.)

Does he have any injury reasons that he wouldn't use his left arm?

I rewatched this play on my DVR a bunch of times and could not fathom why Gronk did what he did. It's as if he had a completely different play in his mind - and not a running one - pretty bad
