One thing to note though is it works well with a defense that generates a lot of turnovers. To me this is a total organizational shift where as the move defensively to try and generate more turnovers allows for a more attacking downfield based attack.
I don't see what the defense would have to do with the success of a certain offensive scheme.
And I don't think we need to make dramatic shifts to our defensive scheme to generate more turnovers. Over the last four years the Bengals are #1 in the league in interceptions. We were down last year, but each of the previous three years we were in the top 4 in the league.
