Re: What's with the defense.

I think this is how Williams planned it. He wrong-footed Parcells by holding off on the blitz and taking away all the underneath stuff to the TEs and RBs. He also pretty effectively took out the deep ball, except for the trick play and one deep out against Taylor. The main thing is he stuffed the run. I figure that they felt the key was not to give up the big play. They gave up one, and it was almost enough. Fortunately, Brunnell to Moss happened!

The book on Williams is that he brings the mad blitz. But Bledsoe can pick people apart and spread the ball. So we took away Juius Jones and played to keep the pass in front of us. It worked, overall. 13 points. Not bad. Should have gotten fumbles on two plays as well, IMO. The main thing about blitzing is surprise. So this will help us down the road as well--changes the book a bit.
