Defenses are having to read at the beginning of the play and each defensive call has run fits. If they read run from a PA, they have to play those run fits. If they don't, you will all of a sudden have a no name back running wild on you. One guy not playing his run fit can let up a touchdown.

This play here is a fantastic example of this. This is Jahvid Best in 2011 against the Bears. The Lions that year were nothing special running the ball. You can see #55 on the Bears vacate his spot on the field to cover the flat and Best runs right up the middle where he vacated. Off to the races for an 88 yard touchdown.  With a broader view, you can look at rushing performance and play-action passing performance to try to find a relationship I.E. better rushing teams are more successful with play-action passes but this relationship doesn't exist. 

HUH Interesting

I would figure the at least decent at running the ball teams would be more effective at play action ?
