true...
but look at the Lions...they were best when they were down 14 and teams stopped being aggressive defensively...
three different guys threw for over 5000 yards...
this year has been a little different
If I were a coach I'd never let off the gas...I'd keep being aggressive on defense no matter what (to an extent)...I see a lot more big play against prevent at the end of the game than I do in the 1st quarter when teams are sticking to their game plans and bringing pass rushers to get to the QB...Denver rushed 3 there, let Roethlisberger manipulate the pocket, step up and find an open guy 30 yards down the field in the end zone...
Good scheme! Great coaching! Boy that John Fox!
