^^^  Someone doesn't.

I get what is supposed to happen when you draw the play up in your mind. Then there is the real world and what happens on the play never matches what you drew up.

The CB has to stay with the WR into the end zone because the safety can't get out there quick enough, it's not humanly possible without abandoning the middle of the field. Jack saw the crosser but can't come up until after the ball is thrown.

The playcall was going to be beat no matter what the players did. Even if they played it exactly like Wash wanted them to, it still gets beat 1 of 3 ways and that doesn't even mention what was happening on the right side of the play.

The defense is design to sit back and what for the other team to make a mistake without giving up a big play. Without pressure mistakes do not happen. The defensive scheme is garbage.

Wrong.  Wrong on pretty much every detail you just said.  What's the Patriot's motto?  DO YOUR JOB.  Where was the ball caught?  Hook-Curl.  Who was the defender?  Jack.  

The wide out was covered inside by the safety, he was right there.  The CB was lazy after passing off the inside release to get to the flat, but that is his man.  Jack was not even looking for the crosser... he was undisciplined staring at the back in the flat.  His head should have come around immediately to the TE when the RB flared out.  Obviously you never played the game, or you would know this.  Sorry man, but its clear as day.
