Badly overmatched teams may feel compelled to run trick plays in the hopes of neutralizing Rams superior talent.

Essentially the Lions manufactured 3 takeaways in that game and that is normally very hard for any team to overcome. It was killing me to see Stafford on the sideline while the Lions ground out a 10 point lead.

So, Rams coaches had better be prepared for copycat plays in the future. Desperate teams do desperate things. Not sure that even the Rams could overcome those 3 takeaways from a team slightly more talented than the Lions.
