Ladell Betts will get more carries as the game progresses and should be able to block effectively on the play action pass. I know I'm excited about hearing Baxter and Kozlowski resigned because that should protect Brunell long enough for him to make the big play.

I'm extremely glad to hear that blocking schemes are adopted to fit the players and not the coaches. The coaches who are successful are those that can adapt.
