Message: [QUOTE="KCJax03, post: 1899288, member: 356"] Question for you, I was watching an interview with Bill Polian a few years ago. He was discussing the K-gun offense in Buffalo and the version they brought to Indy with Payton. The discussion moved on to what type of defense best compliments an up tempo offense. They developed an up-tempo, "fast break" defense that relied on smaller quicker defenders that could put pressure on the QB and create turnovers. Obviously, not a defense that could hold up to an opponent committed to the run game but if the offense did what it was supposed to do, opponents would become one dimensional and play to the strength of the defense. An active, opportunistic defense that does not need to win every battle to win the war. Force turnovers, generate a sack on 2nd and 8 that creates 3rd and long, etc... Do you see Syracuse's D evolving into that when they have the correct personnel or do you think the Tampa 2 is here to stay? [/QUOTE]
