No, you're an idiot. You eluded to forcing him out of the pocket, but thats the OPPOSITE of what CONTAIN means in football.
You rush 4 or 5 at most. You NEVER blitz on 3rd down, he'll kill you. Most teams run stunts and try and get pressure in the middle, you had that right. But that 5th rusher is usually a safety or corner. You need your middle linebackers to play coverage or play gap defense to stop the run. If you blitz a DB that means youre usually in zone to confuse him with elaborate coverages. But brady will STILL go through his progressions and find someone open through the middle or to the outside in short timing routes.
The reason the ravens BEAT THE BREAKS off him was because they got pressure with 4 and sat in man so EVERYONE WAS COVERED and allowed time for the pass rush to get home. Whats crazy is they CAN send a linebacker instead of a DB and still sit tight in coverage.
Basically the ravens beat the pats the way the pats beat everyone else.
