00:00As the fireworks go off over Gillette Stadium, which opened back in 0-2, and that is Brandon
00:10Bolden, who had been with the team and went away for a couple of years and now he's back
00:14and he stands in the end zone ready to receive, and off we go on this opening Sunday night
00:21from the 5-yard line. Bolden will get wrestled down up at the 20-yard line by Vince William
00:29from the 20-yard line. Brady starts with the I-formation. They use two backs a lot and
00:33this time it is Sonny Michello at a really good rookie season. Taken down, this time
00:39it's Bolden coming in motion. He takes it on the slap back around and gets tackled up
00:44at the 26-yard line. Mark Barron, great pass catching back. This time it hits him on the
00:52ground and he's going to get the first out of the short side of the field. So he brought
00:56White in after he'd been split wide from the 35-yard line. Michelle is the back. Sonny
01:04Michelle up to the 37-yard line. Stephen Elson coming over from Kansas City. Keep it
01:11on the ground again here and nothing doing for Michelle as he gets taken down behind
01:16the line of scrimmage by Edmonds. Third and ten. Brady, good protection, throws short.
01:26Deep downfield for Julian Edelman. But so far so good. This is Jake Bailey who won the
01:33punting job. They drafted him. Ryan Allen, the longtime punter, no longer there and his
01:37first punt is a beauty as a Patriot. Sunday night, Pittsburgh with the ball now. James
01:42Connor is the running back. As they start from the 12, a little toss back to him and
01:46Connor coming off a good year. Up to the 16-yard line, he goes. Four-man rush. Roethlisberger's
01:57pass is caught and that's Juju Smith-Schuster clearly taking over as the primary receiver
02:03now that Brown is out of town, more than any team in the league last season. And Roethlisberger
02:09hangs in the pocket, throws, and on the run, catch is made by Connor out of the University
02:14of Pittsburgh for a gain of eight, second and two. Fowler's the new starter. He's marked
02:20as Gilbert was traded. And on second and short, Connor will move the chains as he takes the
02:25ball to the 35-yard line for a first down. Brady's own them, especially in this ballpark.
02:32Well, Pittsburgh did beat them last year at Hines Field. Here's Connor again. Picks up
02:37a couple. Marissa, and no doubt he is watching on his device in the hospital room, we would
02:44imagine. Jalen Samuels is the back, taken down there by Hightower.
02:49He's an attacking linebacker. They use him to pressure, they use him to blitz. No running
02:54back in football wants to try and block him. Pretty solid against the run, too.
02:59And Samuels had a tremendous day. Stack a couple of receivers to the right, and on third
03:05down and six, Ben's going to air it out deep downfield, and the pass is incomplete, and
03:12there was no flag there. That's Johnny Hogan.
03:14To hold off on that, and boy, it really looked like he may have hooked him on the way down,
03:19but watch. He just keeps his hands off, and really a clean play. That was tremendous.
03:26Jones had a big night in that championship game against Kansas City.
03:29Pass interference all the way. Definitely wasn't. Jordan Berry's kick. He's fielded.
03:34A fair catch is made by Gunnar Olszewski, and there they are.
03:41Noon starts from the 18-yard line. Brady's second pass, his first, was incomplete, and
03:46that time a one-handed non-grab by Julian Edelman. So Julian Edelman, the Super Bowl
03:52MVP. Second and ten.
03:59Brady in the pocket, throws, and that's a completion to Rex Birkhead. He gets it out
04:04to the 35-yard line, and that's New England's second-first down.
04:08Patriots here, halfway through the opening quarter. Brady steps up to avoid the sack,
04:15and then almost throws a pick there, intended for Edelman. Flag is thrown.
04:20It was second and ten.
04:22Pass interference. Offense. Number 85. Ten-yard penalty. Replay first down.
04:28From the right side of your screen, at least when I was watching it was, there's the pick
04:31right in the middle, right there.
04:34So now it's first down and 20.
04:38From the 25-yard line, and scooting over the right side, and picking up about nine yards
04:44out to the 34-yard line is James White.
04:50And Brady keeps it on the ground on second and 12, and a nice run here to the 40-yard
04:54line. White again, Devin Bush.
05:00Off the fake. Catch is made. Dorsett, the ex-Colt, taken out of bounds. So they turn
05:05the first and 20 into another first down with under six to play.
05:09And here this one comes, right here. So right now the Patriots, the masters of rubbing off
05:15coverage.
05:16Up tempo, no huddle. Across to Edelman, behind a lot of scrimmage he can throw. He was a
05:20quarterback in high school. And he does throw it back to James White. And White with a big
05:25gain in blocking to the 20-yard line.
05:30Crowd is abuzz.
05:31Quarterback in high school and at Kent State. And then Brady shoots one to Josh Gordon.
05:38Gordon breaking tackles. Touchdown, New England.
05:42Totally blown coverage here. Stephen Nelson comes on a blitz. Nobody replaces him in the
05:48man coverage. And 240 pounds of wide receiver cannot be taken to the ground. What a drive
05:55by the New England Patriots.
05:5982 yards, seven plays. Took him, Stephen Gaskowski, in for the extra point.
06:05The new holder is the new punter, Bailey, and the kick is good. Gaskowski now in his
06:1014th season.
06:14Sends this one through the end zone.
06:19Two backs here, Connor and Samuels.
06:24Rimbled a tight end, came into the slot. And the Patriots take care of Samuels after a
06:31And the Patriots take care of Samuels after a gain of two.
06:36And it really added a ton of yards for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
06:41Second to nine.
06:47Toss. Samuels can't get on track. Flag comes in.
06:53Holding. Offense.
07:00Here, and you go, okay, the action is going one way, and Dante Hightower is going the
07:06other way. Look at that. He saw the guard pull, and he just went right to the ball carrier.
07:11Second and 18 now.
07:15They rush only three. Roethlisberger with that patented shoulder shake.
07:20And then a short game here. Dante Moncrieff, former Colt, former Jaguar.
07:27Backs, and you've got a flag here for a false start on Dante Moncrieff.
07:33False start. Offense. Number 11.
07:36Red fan leaves. Still third down.
07:40Three-man rush. One-handed grab. Nice catch.
07:45That's Deontay Johnson.
07:48Gunnar Olszewski working back to receive it.
07:53Deep kick. Fielded 19 by Olszewski.
07:57And he's got some room to roam. Nice run back, takes it out to the 38-yard line.
08:0538-yard line.
08:08So he took a connecting flight to get where I think he wanted to go in the first place.
08:12And that's a catch that's made by Jacoby Meyers.
08:16Another wide out.
08:19The 40-yard line.
08:21Brady, five receivers out.
08:24Pass caught. Lunging for it.
08:2735.
08:2823 touchdowns, and they get back to the Super Bowl.
08:31If it doesn't, you won't be here long.
08:33Second and six. Good hold there.
08:35And Michel is close to a first down as he gets to the 30-yard line.
08:41Third and one. They get to the line quickly as they are prone to do.
08:45Sonny Michel did before the opening kickoff tonight.
08:51What a career that was.
08:53Meanwhile, you got Brady starting the second quarter here with a pass to Josh Gordon.
08:58Yeah, Josh Gordon going against his old teammate there, Joe Hayden.
09:02Both of them played in Cleveland together and both of them moved on up a little bit.
09:09Second down.
09:10Short one.
09:12And inside the 20-yard line.
09:14Fighting his way for a first down.
09:16About a half-yard and got it.
09:18Sonny Michel who was trying to establish some physicality.
09:23Over the middle. Pass caught.
09:25To the 10-yard line goes Julian Edelman.
09:28Edelman who started the night with 499 career receptions.
09:34Catching balls on the jugs.
09:36Whatever he gets.
09:37Second and one. Put a fullback in there.
09:41And it's Sonny Michel carrying for a first down inside the 9-yard line.
09:48Harris is a big physical guy.
09:51Bargrave just as big and just as physical, but that's a nice block that time.
09:58As the pass is caught on the outside.
10:00Which just reminds me of the great line that Alex Garris once had.
10:04He comes back and he's active.
10:08Five-minute drive.
10:09Brady throws and it's too far in front of Birkhead.
10:14Backs of the Patriots who are really good receivers.
10:19Third down and goal.
10:20Brady buys time and throws out of the end zone.
10:25That was Gordon who gets covered there by Joe Hayden.
10:3125-yard attempt.
10:32Chip shot here.
10:34Right down the middle.
10:36And early in the second quarter, New England 10.
10:39Pittsburgh nothing.
10:41Players low.
10:48Back off 3-yard line.
10:49Ryan Switzer.
10:51Former Cowboy and Raider.
10:53That's what the Dolphins need.
10:54Facing him on top of the Patriots after today.
10:57Pass here caught by Ryan Switzer.
11:00To the 28-yard line at North Carolina.
11:03Second down and two.
11:05And the pass is caught and stopped.
11:07Scheimer first down and Switzer.
11:12Need a yard and it's going to be close.
11:14We're right to the line of scrimmage.
11:17Conner stopped by Danny Shelton.
11:20This is why you have the Danny Shelton's of the world.
11:23He shoots right into this gap and just gets wide.
11:26His body just takes up both gaps.
11:29Able to throw the offensive lineman off of him.
11:35No fake.
11:39Krzyzewski from the 20 avoids the first man.
11:43Nice run back here up to about the 35-yard line.
11:47The Patriots begin this drive from the 35-yard line.
11:52In the middle game of three, Sonny Michel.
11:56Something that he didn't have in college but they took it away from him and gave it to T.J. White.
12:00White as the pass is incomplete.
12:03He has been eyeballing him.
12:05Third and seven. Brings White in the block.
12:08And the pass is incomplete.
12:10So they do hold him here.
12:12Intended for White.
12:15Is a right-footed punter which is very obvious through the years.
12:19Belichick has always gone with the lefties.
12:23Feels that the ball spins the other way.
12:26This time Bailey wins the job and it's a very short kick.
12:30And fielded up at the 33 by Ryan Switzer of the Dolphins.
12:36Ball is at the 30-yard line. Running back is James Conner.
12:40He slips out of the backfield and can't make the catch here.
12:44But a flag is thrown.
12:47New England is complete.
12:49Pass holding. Defense. Number 51.
12:52It's a five-yard penalty. Automatic first down.
12:56The Patriots only two linemen are hanging on the ground as Conner takes it to the 40.
13:03Now playing left tackle.
13:06Out leading the way.
13:08Doing what he used to do in college. Blocking defensive backs.
13:13Second down and five.
13:19Toss. Conner.
13:23Exploits the opening for about four. Devin McCourty.
13:27Again a toss. Conner is going to get swallowed up at the 40-yard line.
13:32Jamie Collins, who had been with the Pats, went to Cleveland.
13:36They bring him back with a stop here.
13:39Loss of four. Fourth and five.
13:41For Pouncey to be expected to get all the way across.
13:44I think they ran that same motion and Collins saw it.
13:47Got a step wider and was able to shoot that gap.
13:50Boy, is that a big acquisition.
13:52Buried upon his fourth kick.
14:00And only one team with a winning record. That was Pittsburgh.
14:039-6-1. Didn't make the playoffs.
14:05Here's Birkhead.
14:07They deserve a break, you know. They really do.
14:10But so far Brady controlling the tempo of this game.
14:13Second and three.
14:15They deserve a break, you know. They really do.
14:18But so far Brady controlling the tempo of this game.
14:21Second and six. Game to three here for Birkhead.
14:24And how do you know that? You simply know that because of the fact
14:28they gave him the number back of Jalen Samuel.
14:31Had him in preseason against Tennessee.
14:33Played in the Alliance of American Football with San Diego.
14:36Off the plate fake. Brady throws. That's a first down.
14:39James White.
14:41You're going to get all this over here.
14:44T.J. Watt kind of tore him up last time.
14:47And they were putting a couple of guys on him so far in this one.
14:52Boy, it is not often that you beat them.
14:58Off the fake. Caught. Edelman.
15:01Over the middle. Lives there.
15:03Fullback in the game and go play action.
15:06You have no choice as a linebacker.
15:09That time Devin Bush steps right up.
15:11And that gap in behind those.
15:20Play fake. Wide open. Edelman.
15:23To the 25-yard line.
15:26Tackled by Cam Kelly.
15:28Down the field to go again.
15:31The fullback in. Your linebackers get all amped up.
15:34Here we go. I'm going to go take on James Devlin.
15:36I got him. Play fake.
15:38Full of space in behind there for Julian Edelman.
15:43And I tell you, until they alter what they're doing defensively.
15:46And yardage.
15:49And the 25 again off play action.
15:52And open for the touchdown.
15:54Dorsett.
16:00Watch him look left and look what it's going to do right here to Terrell Edelman.
16:05Looks left. He takes one step.
16:07One step the wrong direction.
16:10And bango.
16:11There he is looking left. Looking left.
16:14Sell it.
16:15You might have seen Roethlisberger pump fake it.
16:18Comes right back and still the arm strength to drill that seam in there.
16:293.49 remaining in the half.
16:36Gostkowski's kick.
16:39And down by Switzer.
16:42If it holds. I'll just say that.
16:45If it holds.
16:47Roethlisberger has time.
16:49But that secondary is really doing a great job.
16:52And the pass is contested and incomplete.
16:55Ben is six out of eight.
16:57But only 37 yards late in the first half.
17:02Second and ten again.
17:04A lot of time.
17:05And incomplete.
17:07You have two men right there covering Montgrey.
17:09McCourty and Devin McCourty.
17:12So.
17:14Third and ten.
17:16Ben deep downfield.
17:17And that time he is able to connect to Schuster.
17:20Tackled there by Gilmour.
17:22Nicely done this time.
17:23He gets the inside position.
17:25And able to take advantage.
17:27With Gilmour on his outside.
17:29Gilmour on his outside.
17:30Make a sharp break.
17:31Make a good catch.
17:32Good throw.
17:33Number two.
17:34Picked back in 17.
17:37And the pass results in next to nothing is Switzer.
17:40Second down and nine.
17:43And Ben's going to go deep again.
17:46And incomplete.
17:48Coverage that time on James Washington.
17:50Has been the big play threat so far during the course of preseason.
17:55But the one thing you know with Washington.
17:57Is he's been very good at some of those contested catches.
18:00Third and nine.
18:04Shield is only one third down conversion.
18:06This was on this drive on the pass to Smith-Schuster.
18:10That catch is made by Matthew Johnson.
18:13He fights for a first down.
18:16But he's going to be short of it.
18:18Stack a couple of receivers to the right side.
18:21Can they convert?
18:22And they can't.
18:25Incomplete.
18:26Intended for Montgrief.
18:28And broken up by Patrick Chung.
18:30Other guys make a play.
18:31This was a good throw.
18:33Should have been caught.
18:34Ball just dug out of there by Chung.
18:38Two timeouts.
18:40Brady retreats.
18:41There's the Birkhead.
18:42Locking down in front.
18:43Nice game.
18:44Picks up 11.
18:45Takes it to the 42-yard line.
18:48Evan Bush.
18:49He goes five wide.
18:51There it is.
18:52Fires a little bit low.
18:53Helmet comes off.
18:54And Birkhead is there.
18:56Second and five.
18:59Entry backfield again.
19:01Brady fires over the middle too high.
19:03Crowd looks for a flag.
19:05And there is none.
19:07To flank Brady on a third and five.
19:13Good protection again.
19:14Caught.
19:15Another first down.
19:21Brady throws a little low.
19:24He's caught here by Dorsett for a short game.
19:27And White and Rex Birkhead.
19:29And they send them both out.
19:31And Brady throws and the pass is incomplete.
19:35Line up the same way again with the two backs in the backfield.
19:39Both go out.
19:40Brady dancing around in the pocket.
19:42Fires.
19:43That pass is incomplete.
19:45And White looks for a flag.
19:46Doesn't get one.
19:48Edmonds covering on the play.
19:4941-yard attempt for Gostkowski.
19:55And he bangs that one through as he's done so consistently for 14 years
20:00since he took over from Adam Vinicieri.
20:03He's been suspended five times in his career.
20:05Edmonds broke his thumb earlier.
20:08And now all of a sudden it's like, you know,
20:11can you have a better receiving court?
20:13So can Roethlisberger at least get him into field goal range?
20:18Pittsburgh will get the ball to start the second half.
20:21And they're just going to the locker room.
20:24Patriots as we start the second half.
20:26Pittsburgh's going to get the ball.
20:28And they're going to get the ball at the 25-yard line after the touchback.
20:34Running back is Conner.
20:36Roethlisberger surveys and hits Conner underneath.
20:40And he gets bumped forward up to the 30-yard line.
20:48Three-man rush on the second and five and a jump catch made
20:52as three receivers bunched to the right.
20:56And the pass is all nearly picked up.
21:01Second and ten.
21:03Ben chased out and then throws incomplete.
21:06Went too high there for Schmitz-Schuster.
21:09It'll be third down and ten.
21:13Puts McDonald in the backfield
21:15and then goes deep downfield and is caught.
21:19Along the sideline by James Washington with so much speed.
21:23Yeah, we talked about how fast Jason McCourty was,
21:26but watch what Washington does here.
21:28Takes advantage of the little bump right there and gets separation.
21:33I think that McCourty thought maybe the ball had already been thrown,
21:36so if the Steelers ever needed one.
21:4045 yards on the play, off the fake.
21:43Ben steps up, throws, and it is incomplete in the end zone.
21:48Underneath as well.
21:49You're going to see him pop right out there,
21:51and nobody was over there.
21:54McCourty chasing him across the field, but plenty of depth.
21:57These are the kinds of plays, though, these Steelers receivers,
22:00they just have to make.
22:06Ben directing traffic.
22:08Going to take off with it,
22:09and Roethlisberger will slide headfirst to a hold at the 11-yard line.
22:13It'll be third and three.
22:20Bump fake, throws, flag thrown, pass is incomplete.
22:27Prior to the pass, holding.
22:29Defense, number 24, the five-yard penalty, automatic first down.
22:34Ford right there, a little hook around the waistline.
22:39Ben dancing and serving
22:43and gets himself out of trouble for the moment,
22:45but look out, ball is loose inside the five-yard line.
22:50Got him good, and I'm so sure he didn't get the pinball effect,
22:54somebody in front as well.
22:57Never saw Dietrich Wise coming on that one.
23:03Keep it on the ground.
23:05Keep it on the ground.
23:07Connor to the outside, gets to the one-yard line.
23:12Gilmore on him, and Ben going to the left, and the pass is incomplete.
23:18And they are going to send in the field goal group.
23:22You can't ask for a better opportunity if you're a wide receiver
23:26than running in a fade route from that type of formation.
23:32Just unable to lob that thing in there.
23:35But what about this call?
23:36You go for a field goal to make it a 17-point game,
23:40and still three possessions.
23:42Hines, Ward, and Santonio Holmes, the others.
23:51Run back from the six, Bolden,
23:56runs into his own man, bounces off him,
24:01and gets corralled at the 25-yard line.
24:05Starts with a two-back set.
24:07Devlin is the fullback.
24:10Play action.
24:11Good play fake.
24:12There you go again.
24:13How often do you see that play?
24:15We've drawn this five times already, our play action,
24:19and the linebackers step up, and then it's just one-on-one on the back end.
24:23And one of the problems when you cover Julian Edelman,
24:26exactly what it was Edelman was going to do.
24:29And it's good tackle in the backfield.
24:31T.J. Watt has had a fairly quiet night.
24:35Second down, 13.
24:38Brady to the outside for his short game here.
24:43Brian Izzo.
24:50A little snap, and wide, wide open.
24:54Philip Dorsett, big night for him.
24:57Second down, 58 yards.
25:02Don't know exactly what brought Cam Kelly into the middle here.
25:08The guy running right past him, neither safety deep.
25:13He did go across.
25:14Maybe he thought Edelman.
25:15Tomlin looked like he was going to eat his headset.
25:21Kick is good by Gus Cousy.
25:23And Ivan Fiers, running back's coach, has been here the whole time.
25:29Ryan Switzer now.
25:33That's away from a would-be tackle, and Gus Cousy escorts him.
25:38Remarkable how adaptable they have been.
25:42Roethlisberger now, first down, dumps one over the middle.
25:45Connor.
25:47And they have just hit everything they've drawn up.
25:50You think of the trick play early on,
25:52and just set the tone for the whole game.
25:54Connor breaks a tackle and gets into Patriot territory.
25:57Donathan Jones and J.C. Jackson would start for most teams in this league.
26:04Roethlisberger, wide, wide open, but a flag comes down.
26:08So that's Smith-Schuster, at least for the moment, to the 15-yard line.
26:14Pass interference, offense, number 18.
26:18The 10-yard penalty, replay, first down.
26:21The other side of the field.
26:24The 48-yard line.
26:29Fired over the middle, and this grab is made there by Johnson.
26:34Third-round pick out of Toledo.
26:38Still just coming back.
26:39Offside, defense, number 90.
26:42It's a five-yard penalty, replay, first down.
26:45It really led to that change.
26:48Roethlisberger, deep downfield.
26:50Coverage is great.
26:52No chance there.
26:53Back to the seven-defensive back look.
26:58And a blitz here.
27:00And that forces a quicker throw.
27:07Pressure again.
27:09Low throw, incomplete.
27:11Intended there for Johnny Holton.
27:13Fourth down.
27:14What this defense was going to be for New England coming in here.
27:19Fair catch called for, made at the 11-yard line, Watsonville.
27:25This drive will start from the 10-yard line.
27:29Brady with an empty backfield, gets hit, but still gets it away.
27:33That's T.J. Watt.
27:34Comes in, gets there.
27:40Brown joins him next week.
27:43Brady, deep downfield.
27:45And that is Gordon in traffic making the catch.
27:51Like that, the safety.
27:58Running back is Burkett.
28:00A little toss to him.
28:02Behind Devlin.
28:04Uses that escort to pick up several yards to the 26-yard line.
28:10And first down tackled by Bush.
28:16Breaks the tackle.
28:17Burkett picks up 11.
28:20Big play, but survives.
28:22I mean, Tewitt had him dead to rights right in front of him
28:26and barely got a finger on him.
28:31Give it to Burkett again.
28:33Takes it to the 12-yard line.
28:35He, in college, I think played one half of one game at center.
28:38And now here he is leading the world champs.
28:44Burkett again.
28:46But they will be.
28:48They get Russell Wilson.
28:49Seattle comes to Pittsburgh next week.
28:52Brady dancing around.
28:53They finally get to him at the 17-yard line.
28:58Kostowski for the extra point or the field goal, 35 yards.
29:04Big season Sunday night seven on NBC Sports.
29:08Predictor.
29:11I don't know about you, Al.
29:12I'm not sure I would have predicted this one.
29:14They go with an empty backfield here.
29:18And Roethlisberger.
29:23Staying inbounds is Smith-Schuster.
29:27Roethlisberger throws.
29:33That will be a first down.
29:35To be concerned about his offense and Brady's out there putting up 30.
29:40They're both quarterbacks talking about.
29:46Shoots it out.
29:47Switzer.
29:49They just haven't been able to create the pick plays
29:52and those opportunities the Patriots did against Maine.
29:55It's dropped.
29:57Deontay Johnson.
30:01Second and ten.
30:03And another one that is dropped.
30:06Number 89.
30:10Chung lined up on him.
30:13Roethlisberger drops it and then throws a short pass
30:17and that's caught by Montgomery.
30:19Likely going to see pressure here and try and get him to throw high.
30:23Fourth down and nine.
30:25Ben comes back the other way and that's incomplete.
30:28And that's Montgomery beginning to get a flag down.
30:31Bank on it.
30:32Holding offense number 78.
30:35That penalty's declined.
30:37First half.
30:38Athletically staying in front of rushers has been tremendous.
30:42And he and, of course, Sonny Michel both came out of.
30:45Tight end.
30:46Backup center.
30:48Minus their leading tackle from last year.
30:51And there goes Julian Edelman.
30:53He's a positive guy, Al.
30:56And a tremendous NFL debut tonight.
31:00Got to coach him hard for next week.
31:02Of course.
31:04Michel.
31:09They don't make a new deal with him.
31:10I guess, you know, he can look around.
31:17Catches made by Julian Edelman to the 26-yard line.
31:21Do you believe he's going one way and then the other?
31:24We're talking about Edelman before what he's done in postseason
31:29and he's right there with Jerry Rice, his high school prom.
31:33Number 76.
31:34Ten-yard penalty.
31:35Replay first down.
31:36There's Maiana.
31:38First and 20 now at the 38-yard line.
31:41Brady.
31:44Caught.
31:45We were talking about second or third and about one.
31:49Second and 17, and that is caught.
31:52There's a flag thrown as Edelman makes the grab
31:55and the flag comes in from the back.
31:57Pass interference.
31:58Defense.
31:59Number 48.
32:01The ball replaced at the spot of the foul.
32:03First down, New England.
32:04So it brings it back.
32:05The spot of the foul was at the 25-yard line.
32:07First down.
32:08Right.
32:09Four catches for 95 yards.
32:12Gordon, 72 yards.
32:16As soon as we can, this play resumes at second down and six.
32:20Joe Tooney moves over to right tackle.
32:22Here goes Burkhead to the 15 and Jermaine Luminor.
32:26The offensive line.
32:31Move to the outside.
32:33Burkhead shifting.
32:35Flag down.
32:38Holding.
32:39Offense, number 69.
32:41Ten-yard penalty.
32:42Replay first down.
32:44First and 16.
32:48Brady.
32:51A little behind.
32:55Brady, look out.
32:57He goes down.
32:58He got taken down by Mike Hilton.
33:01He saw that coming and Hilton was untouched.
33:03When they make a change at that coordinator position.
33:07Third down and 16 again.
33:09Brady is under pressure.
33:11Couldn't crack it a few jokes on us.
33:13Maybe he knew something about Antonio Brown as well.
33:16Meanwhile, that kick is good by Guskowski.
33:20I know him better than that.
33:21He loves challenges.
33:24And I think he is going to continue to coach past Tom Brady.
33:27Now, Tom Brady may play at least 50.
33:30I have no idea.
33:32I mean, just odds alone of injury or whatever would throw you off
33:36one of those.
33:47You put a new center in the game.
33:49False start.
33:50Offense.
33:52All alignment except for the center.
33:54It's a five-yard penalty.
33:55Replay second down.
33:57Even Cleet having a little fun out there.
33:59Everybody.
34:01I'm not going to say it was the center who was wrong.
34:06But Blitzelf.
34:07The score might have been closer if they used that strategy all night.
34:09Sure.
34:11Second and 15.
34:13And that's caught.
34:14And that's Juju Smith Schuster.
34:19Which is a great name and a lot of fun as Roethlisberger throws.
34:24And yet, where did he come from?
34:26Juju Schuster was born as John Smith.
34:30So much in the community has just been a fantastic contributor in the NFL.
34:35Deep down field.
34:37And that's incomplete.
34:40Got him.
34:42Two-third down and seven.
34:45And that is incomplete.
34:47And that's a flag thrown.
34:48J.C. Jackson on.
34:51Pass interference.
34:52Defense.
34:53Number 41.
34:55First down.
35:00Just that good.
35:01And that is proving prophetic here tonight.
35:09Ben airs it out.
35:10Can he get into the end zone?
35:12Yeah, but New England's going to come up with the ball.
35:15Here's what makes this great.
35:17The cornerback, Jonathan Jones, forces him to the middle of the field,
35:22which makes it a short porch over there for Devin McCourty to come get it.
35:26Now, as a wide receiver, if you're going to be in there,
35:29you've got to work your way back to the outside,
35:32because otherwise that safety has too easy a job.
35:35Brady's still in there.
35:40You know, one thing we should finish up,
35:42and we'll take a look at the schedule first here.
35:44They got to the playoffs last year.
35:47I think Miami's feeling right.
35:50Let's talk about Antonio.
35:53Robert Kraft.
35:56Fourth down here.
35:58Tells Brady, and Brady says, I'm 100% in.
36:01Threat down the field.
36:02He is also exactly what Brady loves.
36:05He's essentially like a Julian Edelman being able to work in the middle of the field,
36:09those change of direction kind of routes, too.
36:11So he is going to fit in beautifully with a wide receiver core that played great tonight.
36:16Right?
36:17And Juju's always done a good job of that.
36:21This takes us to the two-minute warning.
36:24After the play, personal foul, unnecessary roughness.
36:27Offense number 66.
36:29It's a 15-yard penalty.
36:30It will be second down.
36:32He's by the replacement player.
36:34That was fantastic.
36:35Second to 23.
36:41And Ben to Smith-Schuster.
36:46Scares you out of it sometimes.
36:48Third and 14.
36:51Ben gets away.
36:53First one.
36:54Yeah, that will look good on the stat sheet.
36:55And finally, they go to McDonald.
36:57Juju's, Smith-Schuster would be one and he would be two.
37:01And now, well.
37:03Nope.
37:04Go to him again.
37:06Went down and scored.
37:10Second to 10.
37:13A drop there by Shambles.
37:15They dropped a ton.
37:18And the guy started doing jumping jacks.
37:24I almost fell off my chair.
37:26And Washington won the Super Bowl both strike years.
37:29Right.
37:35And it's caught here by Washington.
37:38Brady does not like coming out of games, though.
37:40We've seen that before.
37:41Nope.
37:46And that will be McDonald.
37:52That's why.
37:53They weren't playing that.
37:54Yeah.
37:56It's underneath.
37:58But still, that's one of the odder timeouts I've ever seen.
38:01I've got to tell you.
