Throw the ball and run the ball more balanced. Play man coverage and stack the box. Pressure Lamar by collapsing the pocket and maintaining contain center and outsides. Let JOK, Delpit, and the other LBers blitz and fill the holes for contain when the DEs go. Take away or limit Lamar running, tight man will limit his throwing, make them grind out every inch of offense. Recipe for a win. However, win is unlikely IMHO.

Remember early in the season when Lamar was running in for a TD and somersaulted over the line? Completely unnecessary. Imagine Baker doing that, and the backlash he would have received for being immature and arrogant.

Considering Lamar (throwing and running) accounts for 75% of their offensive yards, that seems fairly self-evident.

In 2 games against the Ravens last year, Baker threw the ball almost 90 times. Mostly because we were getting crushed for the entire game in week 1 and in the second game we still played much of the game 2 scores behind. We have to avoid that.

The 'how' is the question.
Joe Woods confounds me.

There have been 2 games in particular when CLE looked like they could shut down anyone.
This would be the game to dial up some of that.

Can't wait to see what happens tonight. Should be a lot to talk about all week!!!
