Dissecting Ed Reed's Most Iconic Interceptions | Baldy Breakdowns

[@christianhatke477]

The fact that Tom Brady had "find #20" on his wrist every time he played Ed Reed says something about just how good he was.

[@donalddeluxe6407]

that first play ever shown is why bill belichick thinks that ed was the best FS to ever play the position.

[@teezwilliams22]

Christian Hatke and he always went to his backup QB’s on game day whenever my Ravens played him and told the backup QB I want u to watch Ed Reed all game!

[@JuanVicioGotti]

Notice He didn't do that for #43

[@mylestate]

They even cut out the part of that interview where they said Ed played the coverage wrong in other games intentionally knowing Brady & Manning would see it & that's why he knew they would let it go if they saw him drifting to the wrong side.

[@NYCharlie718]

The crazy part of the Manning play was that it probably wouldn't have worked on anyone BUT Manning. Manning was a disciple of the film room and Ed said that for like 2-3 weeks, he did that same move to the middle because he knew he was playing Manning soon. Manning had that move almost ingrained in his mind so when Ed did the flip around, Peyton was completely caught off guard. Literal chess match going on for weeks just for this one interception.

[@chadzard4]

That's insane.

[@voidofbeeswax]

@@chadzard4 That’s awesome.

[@scottwesley5018]

I think its more reading the pump fake move of manning. He said Manning would throw in the direction he pumps, especially if he sees the safety go in the opposite direction. So when manning pumps that way, reed fakes that he is going in the opposite direction. He also makes it look as if his eyes are not on manning, but he still can see manning in his periphery. Then as SOON as he sees manning wind up he knows where he is going and turns around and books it to that spot. Either way its amazing next level athleticism smarts and talent. But I think he could actually see manning making the throw out of the corner of his eye

Cleanest interception I ever saw Ed Reed make was in 2009 when the Ravens played the Bengals at M&T. It was 3rd & 13 and Carson Palmer was staring down Chad Johnson from the snap. Ed ran full sprint towards him as soon as the ball was snapped and picked it off and was gone the other way for a TD so fast, you barely saw him on screen when they showed the replay.

For that interception against the dolphins in the red zone. The Ravens where playing cover 2, but, like Baldy said, Ed had studied the dolphins so much he knew where Chad Pennington was going to go on that play. Ed Reed said, during his film study, based on that formation and down and distance, that Chad Pennington threw the ball to that receiver 100 percent of the time. So when he saw that formation on that down and distance in the game, he trusted his film study and Chad Pennington's tendencies, and abandoned his cover 2 responsibilities ( without communicating to the corner what he was doing) and jumped that route, coming from across the field. Outside of the legendary pick on Peyton Manning, that to me, is his most impressive defensive play of his career, because it was in the playoffs and they where basically on the goal line. I was watching that game live and saw the play when it happened. But as with all all time great players, as impressive as a play is in real time, once you get the broader context on what went into making the play happen, you realize it wasn't just another Ed Reed interception. That play was the result of a once in a generation player making a play that only once in a generation players can make.

As a pats fan my gut would hurt knowing we had to go against ed reed and ray lewis. “We might lose this game...”

The "we might lose this game" feeling is mutual. See you in the finals.
