Well, that's what it comes down to for me is like when you play Detroit and being on a defense knowing, it's a lot of the reason I think Greg Olson has spoken to this, like decisions to force a team to drive the length of the field or have to kick a field goal at the end of the game.

Sean Payton's one of the most aggressive guys in the NFL. Like, faking a punt last week, stuff like that, the Super Bowl, the onside kick. So...
