Again, not accurate.

It is accurate when looking at the losses that left most fans wanting to set their hair on fire. Those losses were predicated around neutralizing the defensive line. They took that out of the equation and what was left? A very soft Tampa 2 because the DC could be counted on sending extra bodies after the pocket. That's when the draws, screens and wheel routes came out and teams walked the ball down field.

Could every team to that? No, but the ones with comparable or better overall talent have had no issues doing so.

We won't even discuss the game vs Navy.
