Is it just me, or would a 4-3 have been better against an option team than the nickle? Sure, our corners can run them down and string out the outside runs, but it seemed like we needed that 3rd linebacker in there for the runs up the middle.

Any thoughts? Am I off base on this one?

I think they were playing 3 WRs.

I was surprised to read in the Times this morning that they didn't really practice that much against this particular offensive scheme.  But that might explain it.

It was also weird to see a nickel back in there when everyone and there momma knew they were going to run.
