Like Stockton-Malone's pick-and roll

I agree, and the key word here is "execute". This offensive line cannot execute anything close to the hogs. Plus, Gibbs first tenure here did not see as much blitzing the way teams do now. It's a joy for these blitzing linebackers to meet the running backs in the hole. Teams are more equal now also due to parity in the league. More teams are better now than when Gibbs coached last time.
