If we can duplicate the same D this year that we had last year I would rather we played against more scat backs than power backs.

Great points here, although if you remember in those games we held those big backs in check through most of the game, but our weak offensive output let them just run and run and run until our D was on the field so long they just wore out at the end of the game...
