Jake was mobile “enough” to tuck and run keeping the D honest as well.
It’s almost like they planned for many pass rushes and used it to their advantage.
Similar to how Denver and the Rams outwitted the Stains stout D the last 2 weeks.
They also kept it simple - and it all worked.
Echoing what others have shared, the run game was a game changer as well.
So much good occurred in that game.
Reminded me of the San Fran game where we just looked like a well oiled machine.
Fun to watch.
Wonder if it might help this defense cannot hurt, we are not playing very well lately.
