IMO, the D just needs to come out with the same mentality as Baltimore. Take away the run and let Russell beat you because Cable won't put the game on his QB's shoulders.
This game is a must win.

Disagree completely. I think you need to stay ahead of the curve. It's not panicking to adapt to a prevent a bad situation.
The weakness of Martyball is two-fold. If the defense stops the run on 1st down then it puts pressure on the offense to pass the ball and to score points because Martyball is not designed to come back from a big deficit.
since we aren't like to run up the score, we need to stonewall the run early.
