This fake reverse was my favorite of the Titans game. Presnap Gronk is in motion left to right. Brady fakes handoff to Lewis, fakes another handoff to Cooks who had run backwards from the outside right on the line. Gronk pulls to the left to block from the left. Brady then passes to Lewis on the right.
What's the history of this? When have the Patriots used it? What new wrinkles did they put on it? Am I naive in saying the timing there was a work of art?
(By new wrinkles I mean just ways their execution is a cut above. Like in Steelers playoff game last year with the flea flicker - Lewis ran way further into the line to really sell the play, more than most backs in flea flickers. And the Solder cut block in the double pass.)
