Brown is great at them because he is a great yac WR, but you can't discount that they are designed plays to get the ball into his hands. Because the Steelers run them so much, You're not just going to shut Brown down. The goal is to limit big plays and yac yardage, which the Pats did a fair job of. Taking into account the sack he took, you're looking at 56 yards on 6 touches, which is not that great for a WR, and doesn't take into account incomplete passes thrown his way.

"taking his sack into account" lol GTFO. This maybe be the most ridiculous attempt to marginalize a player's performance (a performance that was a 160 catch 2,000 yard season pace) I have ever seen.

And it's really not pick plays we use to get Brown the ball in space. It's the long handoffs we throw right at the LOS when the corner is playing off. Most of our pick routes are to Wheaton or Bell in the slot.
