But facing teams that are two-back, power running teams like the Baltimores of the world versus a team like Atlanta last week that we were in sub-defense, most of the entire game other than a handful of plays. Now we’re seeing teams like San Francisco last year, Buffalo this year, Philadelphia in preseason and I’m sure there will be a little more of that trend in the league that the running game is more of a sideline-to-sideline running game as opposed to the traditional what we’ve seen for years out of even two-back or two-tight end teams that double team, power block, pulling guards and stuff like that. Over the course of the season, you’re going to have to deal with all those things. As soon as your opponent sees you’re not very good at one thing, you can expect to see a whole lot more of that. That’s what they do if they have it. That’s kind of the challenge, is to have enough depth and variety in your defense to be able to match up to those different type of offensive systems and be able to compete with them.
