Hello everyone, First I hope all of you are having a great holiday period.

It all started on sunday night, when we dominated the Giants, at home, and really put on a show against the reigning champions, plus we didn't have serious injuries.. That was great !

I wanted to share a couple of plays with you this week. First on defense, I decided to focus On Ed Reed this time, especially after hearing all week long he didn't deserve his pro bowl spot. Then on offense, trying to dissect the 78yards by Bernie P.

First on defense.

On this play, it's 2nd & 9, we have Nicks outside, Cruz inside, on the left side there's two TE's with Bennett inside. Reed is 9 yards deep but he's backpedaling and ready to take his deep zone.

This is just before the snap, Reed is now 15 yards away from the LOS. Ready to cover the deep, but the fact that Nicks is going to run a quick inside route is going to make him change his mind and man up on Victor Cruz

This is supposed to be a "magnifique" cover 4 but Reed is going to leave the deep to take care of Victor Cruz deep inside route (you can see as he sees Cruz going low to cut, he's already re-attacking), when some safeties would just stay there like "okay no one's coming into my zone."

By re-attacking so quickly, he put himself in a great position to make a play, I like Ed's gambling even though sometimes it doesn't pay(watch next play) when it pays, it pays !

Can yous not get all22? It's great, see so many people criticise someone, flacco for eg, or a cornerback, then you watch all 22 and you just have a wee laugh to yourself because people can't see the whole picture and how the play developed like it did.

Everyone should have it available to them before commenting on anything.

I just learned that the NFL Game Rewind show all 22 film. I may have to get that. Was never really interested before as i record all the games and rewatch them anyway.

But the all 22 would definitely be worth the money to me

Will the real Slim (shady) please keep posting these? Haha but for real, these are great.

That's why I love my seats in the endzone-- you can see the plays develop and line play. There is so much not seen on TV. It's a little rough inside the opposing 30, but the scoreboard takes care of that.

Yea i remeber when i used to work on the club level, i loved the view. From 5am to about 12:30pm they got whatever they wanted from me. At 12:30, i turned my radio off and went missing lol.

I had free range to walk all around the Club level so i loved the angles i'd see. Nothing like seeing a play develop and come together.

Best wishes to Ed Reed after he presumably leaves the Ravens' organization at the end of the season! I certainly hopes he makes a gracious exit and retire a Raven instead of trying to painfully prolong his career.

Why would he do that if we let him walk this year? Based on those play breakdowns alone he's a valuable asset in coverage to any team in the NFL. Most teams sacrifice some tackling for coverage at the FS position.

Great job once again!

This is my favorite series ever on here.
