Not hardly Daniel. Rome has the best pass rush in the conference, and an awesome defensive backfield.
With this knowlege, we attemted a power running game with elusive backs. 95/5 run/pass, with short passing, and lots of HB passes mixed in. cherri, Romes DC had made adjustments, by throttling back on the blitzing, taking into consideration that we throw lots of HB passes.
Simply put, cherrie came up with a great gameplan to stop one thing, but it played right into our offensive gameplan, and stopped it cold. One of the things we had counted on was was the heavy blitz, and possibly breaking some long runs.
I know you are hoping for our demise, Daniel. It ain't gonna happen. This is a football TEAM. Not a football ME. I wish you the best of luck, and hope one day you *get it*.
