It was when the falcons commited that holding call when they where in fg range. Was it a good call?

As sweet as the Edelman catch was -- and I'm not trying to discount it at all, it was a legendary display of effort and focus -- it was on 1st and 10. I think it is being romanticized a little bit. If he doesn't make that catch, I still think we march down the field and win the game. Brady has a few clutch completions on the drive already before that. It was important that it didn't get picked, but it's not like it was a 4th down "makes-this-catch-or-the-game-ends" scenario.
The Hightower strip basically made a comeback possible. I think that was by far the most impactful play of the game. Huge swing of momentum.
Well, we were on like our own 40 with 2:15 left to go. If Edelman doesn't make the catch, the clock stops too. That's unquestionably enough time. Whether it would've happened or not is debatable, but I don't think time was really a factor.Not entirely sure we still have enough time, though. That was a big gain.
