And you don't think Belicheck could exploit our weaknesses?

Belichick didn't have Von Miller. The thing about our weakness was that it took a very particular type of player to exploit it. The Broncos had one of those guys. Arguably the best one of those guys in the league. The only two games we lost that season both saw speed rushers take Mike Remmers' lunch money. He just can't handle speed rushers and I'm not sure why Shula thought he could handle Miller with minimal help.

I was thinking about it, and I thought we would have stood a good chance against that legendary team, what do you think?

Belichick could have dissected our offense quicker than Wade Phillips ever could have. The results might have been worse with a Brady with a live arm versus Manning's worn out noodle arm.

Best not to dwell on such things.

    • CJ Stroud going to flame out if he doesn't watch out..
    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
