I have a question about this as I don't think I understand it. I know that the purpose is to try and prevent the long pass and is used in obvious passing plays. But I am not sure why teams seem to go in this mode when they have the lead. What is the thinking behind this? It seems to me that when we do this or when I watched the 49ers last night, that it usually allows others to score.
Was Denver using the prevent defense when the Ravens scored those 2 TDs at the end of the game? Was the 49ers using it when Brady came back and scored 28? I don't know about defenses enough, I just know that when we get the lead we don't keep the pedal to the metal. It seems like we let our foot off the gas and let others score. What am I missing?
