Yes, I was being pretty loose with my terminology there.

Glanville in fact did bring back massive blitz packages when he came back in 90, and it worked great sometimes.

Like the first quarter of the first game when they nearly gave Warren Moon a nervous breakdown and took a 27-0 lead.

Then, it didn't work great some other times, like in 91 when he kept blitizing Rypien and Rypien ran up the score in response.

Oh god mark rypien. Forgot about old crater face. Gibbs wouldn't let up in that game. More proof of Glanvilles coaching deficiencies. He couldnt adjust. Get some TEs and run the damn ball.
