The Rams got off on running over him in the first quarter, so Sutton takes him out, and puts in the 6'6", 320 lbs Kevin Vickerson. Vickerson helps Poe shut down the run. The Rams have to start airing out the ball, and Sutton puts Bailey back in.
You really, truly, absolutely have to take your hat off to Sutton's dominance so far this year. A MUCH more impressive performance over last year's.

An understanding of the system by the players and an understanding of his players by Sutton.
Continuity and performance built by repetition.
