Tom Brady Highlights – The Greatest QB Ever (by Ted Bosque)

Of his 53 misses, 20 appeared to be due to the fault of the receiver. Eight passes were dropped (Edelman led with three), seven were the result of the receiver blatantly running the wrong route, and the rest were the cause of other factors, such as Aaron Dobson pulling up lame on a deep pass against Buffalo or Rob Gronkowski losing a pass in the sun. Taking those instances away, Brady’s completion percentage of deep balls rises to a more respectable 40 percent.

A “deep threat” won’t really matter, but it would be nice to hit a few more than they missed this season.

Plenty of quotes from BB and a couple AFCCG GIFs (barf), still a fascinating look at what makes the Broncos’ offense tick.
The Official Super Bowl Preview « Bill Barnwell/Grantland
Obviously not much Super Bowl stuff getting posted here this week, but this is an extensive preview from the always-great Bill Barnwell, truly breaking the game down to the level that most can’t fathom.
If you like real football X-and-O’s this is the must-read of the week.
Probably the value of pace and just how quickly offenses can execute. There’s a delicate balance at times with it though, and knowing when to put the peddle down and when to let off is probably one of the biggest challenges to running the no-huddle. Obviously, you need the personnel with the versatility and smarts […]
