Peyton Hiilis had 190 yards rushing that day, the Pats run defense still stands at rank 11 vs. the run, the Jets have two runningbacks capable of rushing for just short of that (Jets rank 4th off rushing), and Cleveland kept Brady to only 22 mins of playtime this is the key if you cant pressure him take the ball out of his hands to beat him.

There's only one problem with the "Cleveland Brown blueprint": judging by the rest of the season, it was more a letdown by the Patriots in a trap road game than anything else. Compare that to the rest of the season (victories over the Colts, Chargers, Steelers, Ravens, Jets, Bears, Packers).
