They'll look at what the ravens did and try to do that. Basically they will zone blitz. But if they defend the run and overload it, Brock will just expose their weak secondary.
I'm very curious to see how this plays out. I personally believed Baltimore figured something out with Kyle, Purdy and this offense. They seemed to know everything that was happening. It wasn't just SF played poorly. Detroit doesn't have nowhere near the talent Baltimore does though.
Its not anything complicated. Baltimore's defense is elite. Specifically they have some great linebackers. Kyle's offense has difficulty going against fast athletic linebackers that have speed to drop back after being faked out on a play action pass.
Basically the Baltimore defense - IMO - is what our defense is, but with better defensive backs.
