I think it had to do more with the fact that they did the exact opposite of what they did the entire year. A huge portion of their defense was man defense during the regular season. For the Super Bowl, it was 90% zone. You can imagine which defense they prepared for. BB acknowledge Patricia (Lions HC) defensive game plan earlier in the year when Goff struggled badly in that game. The difference in that game is McVay used Gurley to carry the load and win the game.
