Re: I have a riddle for you

I secretly thought that they were gonna fix it over the bye, after the slightly stronger showing of the run game in New England. If they were gonna tear up the playbook and make the big switch, that would have been the time to do it.

I'm not so sure they can just flip a switch and go back to their old scheme in a single week, anyway. That's gonna be extremely messy, and for a team that's already way sloppier than normal, look out....

I will say this, I hardly ever criticize Payton, but this switch to zone blocking is the one solitary idea of his that I have really *not* bought into, ever since he first brought it up. From the very beginning, it felt to me like tinkering, change for the sake of change, or fixing what wasn't really broke in the first place. Unless there was something to it that I couldn't see, I never understood the reasoning for making the switch. Maybe he was watching a lot of the Texans during his year off, or all those practices we had with them, or something.
