[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 859064, member: 10086"] I was thinking about what’s different with the 2019 team. I think it’s that GB can get ahead and eventually hold. In the past, the Defense would allow its opponent to slither back in and then they’d lose ground and crumble. Similar to the 2014 Seattle NFC game and many others. In 2019 GB gets ahead and then the opponent slithers back in the game.. then the GB Defense makes that big stop (INT by Amos or King or Lowry of all people) and then the clock doesn’t permit it. This GB Defense has only had a couple of semi poor performances this season. But what’s apparent in each one was the inability of the Offense to control their part of the bargain. The O would either turn the ball over or lose field position back n forth or both. Much of these playoff games will come to field position. My prediction is that the resurgence of the GB ST return unit, some solid punts and coverage and a dramatically more disciplined ST unit will put GB in increasingly better down n distance situations. Don’t expect MLF to be punting once we pick up a 1st down across midfield crossed with short yardage scenarios. We’re not kicking 55 yard FG or risking a touchback netting <=25 yards etc.. were better off turning it on downs at the 38 and relying on this D. After 2 weeks to prepare, We also might see a trick play either on O or ST that’s out of the norm (unless the game is a runaway). [/QUOTE]
