Predictability of screens and draws

[iapatsfan]

I'm not sure if this is just because I watch the Pats so frequently and intently, but it seems to me our draw and screen game has become extremely predictable. Maybe it is because nobody fears us completing anything beyond 10 yards, but it does seem the draws and screens are being shut down a lot more often than they are working.

 

[HEY BRO! WHAT UP?]

I find it funny when teams don't have any threat running the football, yet they have the nerve to run play-action.

or

when they throw 5 straight times yet run play-action.

I agree with you man. I think they have just used it too much the past 10 years and teams are all over it now.
