The Browns are one of the best run stopping teams in the league and got back Danny Shelton and another one of their
run stoppers they didn't have the first time we played them. Just cause we always beat the Browns doesn't mean you
have a point. We had to throw the last time around.
Something changed in our aggression, it wasn't near as passive as it has been all season.
Don't tell me it was all Hewitt and Mixon either. They both played well but there was a big time difference in the way
the O-line played. Call it what you want, less zone, more directional, it was different.
Climb to the highest mountain top and scream it all day. You're just parroting something you read on here that has zero truth.
How many times have you heard anyone associated with the Bengals point to the "new scheme" as the reason they ran so well?
Zero?
That's what i thought.
And while we're at it...could you explain this new fangled, oh so mysterious "directional blocking" and how it works?
No?
That's what i thought.
The difference was, more Hewitt and a more aggressive Mixon hitting the hole and cutting back when it was there. This isn't rocket surgery where NFL teams abandon what they've practiced all year and they all of the sudden become world-beating blockers in one week.
Plus, the Browns.
