Can we stop this already, please? There was no great "change in scheme" against the Browns. There were 3 things that made a difference in that game.
1. More Hewitt
2. Better execution
3. Cleveland Browns
The Bengals ran a couple power plays; first play from scrimmage right for 9 and a power left for a loss later in the half. Other than that, there was more snaps for Hewitt which resulted in positive yards and more than anything, Mixon used his cut back lanes better on the inside zone runs, of which, there were plenty as usual.
Single back sets they run mostly inside zone with a very minimal amount of power plays which always baffles me since they've been so successful with power in Marv's tenure. Mixon's 4th quarter TD was an outside zone run. And there was that stupid toss left to Gio on the short side of the field with the Browns D stacked on that side (dumbest play call ever).
But there was NO grand change in scheme.
Ok, my rant is over. I just can't be expected to bite my tongue constantly when someone makes threads and multiple posts about something that's not true then someone else continues to use it as an example.
