Here's a question...how many times would you have preferred Taylor call runs early in the game before he realized it wasn't going to work? Marv would have called a lot and not been very successful. Belichick adapts to the teams he plays and sometimes (against Pitt especially) he completely ignores the running game and throws the ball all over the place (ok look...forget the Brady part of this).
I'd rather have Taylor emulate BB and not Marv.
I think there will be more runs against the 'niners. Home game and whatnot. They will at least be more willing to try harder to run, being at home--i believe.
Agreed 100%. I think a lot of people are going to be looking for them to establish the run against SF, but if SF plays them exactly like Seattle does I have no problem with them chucking it another 50 times. I don't want them to run just because they feel like they have to run... take that is given to them.
