On several of those plays - likely even the one noted above - the outcome is almost immaterial. He's putting that play on tape so that he can do that Reid safety blitz that straightjacketed Jackson and took the Ravens out of FG range.
It was arguably the biggest defensive play of the season. That would've made it a one -score game with plenty of time left. It was MASSIVE and you know part of the reason it got home was that Spags sends so many guys from so many places that all those fake looks he gave were throwing Jackson off. He had 3 or 4 guys fake blitzes there. And Reid didn't show anything until after the protection call and just before Jackson snapped it. Reid wasn't on Lamar's mind at all - he was watching the LBs and the CBs.
I just can't say enough about how locked in Spags has been this year. It's been a masterclass.

The thing that gives me the most confidence we will win is I don't think Purdy is good at setting his protections and Spags is just going to put that kid in a blender for four quarters.
