[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 913426, member: 5830"] Very true. The sweep was in everybody's offensive playbook back then so anyone could run it, same as today. The difference is that Lombardi made them execute it at near perfection, better than anybody could at the time. Most plays that are executed at a high level these days could still be effective even against speedy defenses. We just don't see teams as polished and prepared as they were under Lombardi's five championship seasons. One of the philosophies of judo provides a good lesson for beating speed. Use your opponents' momentum against them. When speedy defenses attack with speed, it can be easier to push them further out beyond their target. A lot of it is in the mindset of whether you are going to try to out-muscle and control your opponent or take the momentum that they give you and use it to your advantage. [/QUOTE]
