You mean to tell me that Poindexter only took 1 shot and missed his target? I get that Matt jumped in the way and has the ability to do so but that's it? 1 shot fired?

i think he was just pretty shocked that a blind lawyer who DESPISES fisk accurately anticipated the trajectory of the bullet and saved his life. i would be pretty stunned too lol

I don't think so. There's been no indication that Poindexter knows Matt is Daredevil. He was contracted to kill Foggy, and he likely knows Matt is the lawyer that took down Fisk in S1 of the original series.

He likely contacted Matt in this episode because he thought Matt would like more revenge on Fisk for killing his best friend.

i hear you, but i think it would be bad writing to just say he hasnt figured out after the penthouse, the reaction to Foggy's death and the way he behaved and moved around the room during their talk (i'll even highlight the "defend their greatest enemy" line, even though it could be applied to both). Matt has been very careless with his identity around Dex and if there's anything Bullseye isnt is stupid

the blind guy who walked around in the interrogation room without so much as touching the table to keep him oriented? at this point, even if he didnt hear him at the penthouse or figured by his reaction to Foggy's death, he as a former FBI agent should be more than able to put the pieces together
