[QUOTE="DevilDon, post: 530894, member: 2057"] Are you kidding me? He said it: they were stacking the box with one high safety. That's an unfriendly scheme for running the football. It doesn't matter that they were successful before that, that's a tough road to go for any RB including Eddie Lacy. Why is this difficult for you to understand? Capers schemed against the run so they passed, you'd rather believe the coaches were just stupid but that's stupid to assume so. Capers gave them the look to pass and took the run out of it. Why oh why is this so hard to accept? Look Adam, you can decide to defend the run or the pass and you will have mixed results depending on what the offense does. If you defend the run and they pass then you have weakened yourself. If you play coverage and defend the pass then you leave yourself vulnerable to the run. It's how football is played ya know? The Packers (and Dom Capers) decided to sell out and defend the run and that put the Cowboys in a position to try to gain very tough yards on the ground or take advantage of the passing opportunities the Packers allowed. They gambled on the latter and lost. A few dropped balls and a few poor passes killed them. They [I]might[/I] have tried to run but the Packers were set to defend that first and foremost. Good lord, what would it take for anybody to open their eyes and see this was a well coached win? [/QUOTE]
