    I apologize if this has been thrown around but did anyone else maybe felt that TA was trying to take a page out of the 87 SB (I think it was) where Belichick played a defense designed to slow the Bills K gun that included Thurman Thomas running for over 100 yards to chew up clock management?

    I am not sure if the personnel used backs this argument up but just thought with a great passing attack that this would neutralize Flacco.

    Results were obviously not indicative of that scheme but may explain why the RB was so effective.

    Thoughts? Crazy Talk? lol

    The D played the Browns RB so well but maybe they just tried to make the rook QB beat them with stacked fronts. I dont have the all 22 so just theorizing here.

    I think they changed the defensive game plan to stop the run after Chase gashed them and every coverage they tried behind it didn't work.
