Wow, this is the quietest I've seen this forum after a win

I agree. This puts me in mind of the Aaron Brooks years (stay with me!) If I looked at the stats and not the score after a game and saw Aaron threw for a million yards I knew we lost. Different reasons but the same principal. We stuck to the run as much as possible v Detroit. Yes, at a point we went stagnant scoring wise late in the game by sticking to the run, but we burned clock and passed then when we needed to. Great job coaching IMO.
