It was a brilliant one off scheme designed to stop a unique offense that the Ravens could not have seen coming by reviewing video of previous Chargers games.Originally Posted by pczach
It was exposed by a Chargers team that we thoroughly outplayed, but lost to, and used a defensive scheme using safeties as linebackers to use their speed to shoot gaps and pursue the fleet-footed quarterback and still be able to hold up in coverage like we were told the Steelers defense was going to try to employ this season when they acquired a bunch of safeties.
That was hard to take!
The 2018 season has exposed the growing gap between the league’s best schemers and the rest of the pack, and the first set of postseason games made that idea more evident than ever.

If asked to come up with a comparable outside the box scheme to stop the Ravens, Butler probably would have Bostic or Williams spy on Jackson
