How do you know scheme is the problem? Maybe it's the players.
I think it is both? Everyone knows we run a basic cover 3 almost all the time. We have been fortunate enough to have some of the best players in the league that know all the holes or are athletic enough or smart enough to dominate the opponent.
Everything is simple when you have the best players.
Now, we have tons of injuries to deal with, but has Richard changed anything up to protect them or play to their strengths? Or just adapt to opponent offense more. We might not have the players to just keep trucking along with the same scheme. I mean we can, but obviously it’s not going to work as well as it once did, and teams will take advantage.
