I’m not pretending anything. Stop acting Iike the other team isn’t going to catch a single pass. If your going to bring up his catches, bring up his drops.
Even then none of it matters. In the moment, take the least 1:05 left. You make some plays on defence catch a bad break on hands to face. Line up, and of course your looking at TE, but unfortunately they all wound up into a 2 man traffic jam.
Call it what it is, a lucky play. That TE your taking about didn’t catch’s truly contested pass all night. He got lucky his rub route worked. By definition of that scheme, your forcing a D into a mistake, what’s worse is somehow 3 got caught in it.
