The defense relies on pressure not turnovers. The Lamar INT and fumble were both the result of pressure. Yes you can rely on that. Learn the game of football before showing up with garbage takes.
I really don’t have any issue with the defensive calls last night. As you said they got caught in a substitution situation on that last drive. Got lucky with the Andrews drop but it also looked like an illegal pick play that got him so open.
He was the difference yesterday for sure. He forced the first INT and perfectly read the first two point attempt to break it up (guy was wide open). Made multiple plays against the run in the first half. Definitely was the Milano of old.
I don’t think Brady was competent last night but you can’t be critical of the head coach in a game where they only commit one - ONE - penalty and zero turnovers.
You are right. The play calling in the 3rd quarter would’ve been the story of the offseason if they hadn’t pulled out the win - it was inexcusable and coaching malpractice.
