What I saw all over the field last night was balance. An ego-less team(tough to say with Rivers on the field) that was patient and poised. They ran their offense about as smooth as I seen, with very long drives, that ate a ton of clock. Play calling about as perfect and their Oline is very ordinary. Defense was attacking, but not really crazy aggressive. Everyone manned up and won individual battles and hit the QB a nice amount of times.
Felt like I was watching NFC east football from the 80s and 90s. It was refreshing.
