For point of clarification, Greene was on the left side of the formation crossing over the middle, correct?

Yeah Greene (it looks like #13, hard to read the number on the jersey) is lined up on the slot, left side of the formation on the bottom of the screen.

 

Watching this play develop, it seems like the right playcall to be honest and was just a bad bad baaaaaaad read by Blake. Like, kindergarten level read (heh couldn't resist). I think if he comes back to his left side, there's two possible things to look for as dictated by the call:

 

One is the example we saw above: the LB was drawn upfield by the TE and left the WR option. The other option, if the TE stayed underneath and covered Greene, is that Harbor on the corner. Not seen in that vine (but you can see from BCC's stills), they were playing single high safety. With Hurns(? the receiver lined up on the same side as Yeldon) going deep, he would have pulled the safety deep. Which to me, means you'll have an opportunity going to Clay vs. the nickel (and based on depth, I think Clay would have had an advantage here)
