honestly, seattle did adapt on offense with walker for bits. and Sam made some of the throws. look he was pressured a bunch and missed some he would love to have back, but he didn't put them in turnover city. even without the best WR in the game today for stretches. 

pats refused to go with their own home run guy in henderson in the playoffs and it bit them. he was their top big play guy for a ton of games.

I was specifically talking about McDaniels and the Pats offense. They didn't adjust to poo.

It wasn't the coverage, it was the pass rush scheme. Zone defense behind a dominant pass rush has always been a recipe for great D. That was what the original Seattle Legion of Boom was built around. The overloaded the left side of the Pats OL all night long knowing those rookies wouldn't be able to handle it. And just like Shula in SB50, McDaniels refused to adjust to it. Just like Shula, he just stuck his head in the sand and pretended that somehow it would just magically start working out at some point.

I watched the scheme a few stunts and pulls occasionally but it wasnt rocket science, the pats line has been there acchiles heel all year, this game played out almost exactly as I expected.

The only way is if Drake just doesn’t want to be on the Patriots long term. He’s a Charlotte kid, he married his middle school sweetheart. If the Panthers were ever a real opportunity for him I have to assume he’d also want to make that happen. Would take another 3 years minimum. 

And two years of franchise tags if he stays a top QB. 
 

It!s a nice thought though.

None of it is rocket science. No one is doing anything different in the game of football at this point. It's about getting good players and putting them in a position to succeed. Basically, don't be Mike Shula in SB50 or Josh McDaniels in SB60.

I'm just gonna say, I'm super happy for Sam Darnold.   He deserves this after all the poo he had to deal with.  Not the MVP but played solid.

Maye had a not so good run in the playoffs, but got bailed out by a good defense and some terrible play from the opposing qb.  More turnovers than td's for the entirety of the playoffs.  He is young and should improve, but is going to have to clean up the turnovers to truly become elite.
