So do you think this was us?
"But be wary of constraint plays against very talented teams — they may be stuffing your core offense not because they are cheating, but instead because they are better than you; the constraint plays then play into their hands."
I do think losing Patterson hurt, I was worried about our chances in a revenge game, especially without our starting center. I did feel like they were "cheating" to take away the run and make Book uncomfortable, but it is beyond me to see the plays called, so I don't know what constraint plays we tried that should have been the answer to what Venables plan was. Since their plan was to make Book stay in the pocket, I feel like an answer should have been to move the pocket by design or have more rollouts. It would be nice for Greg to put together an article on what they did to us and what we tried to do in answer to it.
