Bill Belichick’s tactics were praised by former New England Patriots running back Danny Woodhead in connection to a key play in Sunday’s AFC Championship Game between the Baltimore Ravens and Kansas City Chiefs.
After hauling in a pass, Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers ran for the goal line on the first play of the fourth quarter and dove for the end zone, reaching the ball out in the process. This was where things went awry, as Chiefs cornerback L’Jarius Sneed knocked the ball out of the receiver’s hands, and Trent McDuffie recovered it in the end zone.
