Last week, we looked at play-action offense around the NFL. With nearly every team in the league running play-action on over 20 percent of their pass attempts, defenses have had to scramble to respond. Today, we'll flip to that side of the ball and see how teams have managed against this increasingly common line of attack.
Today, we're opening with a big question: is being good at defending play-action actually, you know, a thing? Logic says yes, of course it is; there are skills involved that teams and players can get better at, what a stupid question.
