I wouldn't say they ran it a ton since Kyle said they would be running more of it. I could be wrong about that though, that's why I asked if we were marred to this scheme instead of making a statement. I would like to know how often we went with Wide 9 and two deep S, but I probably can't get those numbers without rewatching every play.
We confused Wilson in our win against Seattle by showing a single high look, but having both safties play high post snap. I think Saleh evolved last season.
