But there ARE teams - more and more of them- that are going to try to win games with their running game. We have one in the West in LAC and probably another with Pete Carroll.
Bolton may actually be a bit undervalued going forward if this trend continues. And man, it is SO easy to find another LB to run alongside him and cover some of those weaknesses in space.

For me it's the fact that we're going to be seeing those teams every season in January and our own division.
Bills
Ravens
Lions
Eagles
Top seeds in the bracket this year, excluding the Chiefs of course, and they are all HEAVILY run dependent nowadays. Now, maybe the Bills will shift back the other way with another change in offensive philosophy, but the Ravens, Lions, and Eagles are built that way for the long haul.
