When they are playing the cover-two and all of a sudden it's 3rd-and-2 and they play cover-two and they lock you man-to-man with the outside receivers, it forces you to throw the ball inside and forces you to take small yards at a time.

When you're running the ball so successfully and getting a lot of five-, eight-, 12-yard gains, after a while that time starts to tick away. If we could do that every game, that would be ideal.
