I am pretty sure it was the second one. In the first quarter it was about a 10 yard slant over the middle that went for about 60 yards or whatever...
About 5 seconds before that play started I knew exactly where they were going with that pass. There were three receivers at the top of the screen with the two guys farther out being played up close by our guys. The guy closest to the linemen in the slot was covered by our DB who gave him a 10 yard cushion. The middle receiver then basically ran a pick and confused the hell out of his defender and our other guy that was 10 yds back which led to the slot guy catching the ball and scoring. To me, this was the play of the game and totally broke our will. It just looked like a totally crappy way to play defense and it seemed like such an easy play for the QB to make.
Anyway, did anyone else see this play and how we defended it? I don't think I have ever seen that type of defense before and am really wondering if our DB blew it by lining up wrong or if that was the scheme?
