Starting quarter 2 they did.
Seeing it the second time it's clearly not as I remembered it (and my God the picture quality is horrid!)
In the 1st quarter the Lambs ran Faulk and threw to him. Not a ton but I'd said normal to their scheme. He was definitely not shut down.
Starting in the 2nd quarter there was a clear change. They ****ing mugged Faulk.
It sounds simple but they just erased the guy after that. They hit him twice where he was slow to get up (he always was a pussy.) They never really did anything great they just took the foundation away and it all fell apart.
In the second half Martz went full Martz and just decided to sling it.
