Sorry, but I was just reviewing the posts on the thread, and saw this one.
You state, "problem is if brady goes 3 wide...its almost defiantly a pass or a screen...".
I've seen the Pats run and execute fly patterns out of this formation, so it is possible. But I agree, a screen is more likely.
Just thought I'd mention that in passing (!)...
Hope your morning's good!
CA....
but everytime i see and ace formation with trips (3 wide) them wideouts are being used for blockers
