Was this game an aberration, or was it a brilliantly-devised plan to beat our style of defense?
It's not really a secret that Browner and Chancellor aren't the fastest guys at their positions. The Colts pass protected well enough to free up some deep passes. Their bunch WR sets helped create confusion to throw a wrench at our press man to man coverage.
Also, the hurry up offense made our constant defensive rotations look like they need to be re-thought. We couldn't get set quickly enough, and it resulted in a penalty (ill-called or not) and two wasted time outs.
It's interesting that the Colts attacked us in a way so different from the way Houston did.
Is this how to beat the Seahawk defense? Or am I worrying about nothing? Our defense was nearly completely healthy. We can't blame all the D's problems on the offensive line injuries (and corresponding lack of continuity) and officiating, can we?
Discuss, please. I want some people that are smarter than me to weigh in on this stuff.
