Jags front 7 guys have been over pursuing and being super aggressive with trying to "cheat" in certain directions to get an advantage. If you know enough tape and recognize a tell, or are athletically gifted enough to catch the mistake, you will be okay.

However, Andy Reid's offensive scheme is entirely about using aggressive schemes against you. Spread you and misdirect. Dallas just repeated that game plan, in a lesser fashion because of lack of personnel.

I think any coach would have the same problem if they had an all pro defense and a struggling offense. Your good players will try to make plays to make up for the ineffectiveness on the other side of the ball even if it means taking gambles that can put you out of position. It's a natural thing to do when you are trying to figure out a way to win.

Hopefully the addition of Hyde will give more consistency to the offense and we can get back to our style of controlling field position and time of possession. This way the defense doesn't feel the necessity to force the action in order to make a big play and can concentrate on just getting the other team's offense off the field.

It doesn't. This is part of why they got rid of a bunch of borderline pro bowl players like collins and the cornerbacks who would do things like that.

New England mantra is to be very good and smart and do your job without any over pursuit or such.
