Time to bench Brunell? (Mega Man Merge)

It's hard to try the deep ball when teams play the cover 2 deep all the time. That's what opens up the underneath passing game. All three opponents we've played used the cover 2 to prevent the big gains, and that's why we stuck with the dinks and dunks against the texans, and they couldn't stop it or figure out what we were doing. The reason they were playing the cover 2 in the first place was because Portis wasn't in there, and they didn't think our running game could exploit the cover 2's weaknesses.
