Side thought, thinking back. Did they know our script? Not saying they cheated or anything, but Day admitted that we had a script for the first few series. When did the offense look it's worst? The first few series. When did the DB jump our play for a pick 6? etc. Once we got to the 2 minute drill at the end, and the 2 TD drives in the 2nd half, we were off script. So, is Day's script obvious?
The thing is Day's offense isn't big on disguising things. If you watch enough tape and break down their formations and the personnel they put on the field, I think you can predict what they are going to run.
The reason they seem to get better in the 2nd half was they basically had to run and pass out of 12 personnel sets. They need at least 1 TE to stay in to help pass protect. This basically made it harder for Miami to figure out if it was run or pass. They also had to figure out which TE was going to stay in vs which would go out to run a route.
