The defense is reminding me of 2011

I think we do a lot better against straight up running though. The RPO makes them doubt themselves just enough to slow them down half a step.
Agree. Just noticed that in preseason we didn't look as stout against the run as years past. Granted, we played backups for the most part, even with starters in, it just looked a step behind. I am sure the loss of Brown is part of the reason for this.
