I'm just baffled they continued to throw in those conditions when the run game was doing well.  That's on ZT.

But was the run game doing well?  We had one series where we ran well in 1st half, but most of the runs outside of 1 series, went for less than 4 yards... early into 2nd half we were so behind we had to pass the ball or try to

1st possession: 2 carries 6 yards
2nd possession 1 carry 3 yards
3rd possession 1 carry 3 yards
4th possession 1 carry 7 yards ( 3 and 22)
5th possession 4 carries 51 yards... we had 44 of that 2 carries in a row, then we got 7 on 2 carries and passed on 3rd down
6th possession 2 carries 2 yards

So outside of two runs long runs and a 7 yard carry on a 3rd and 22 i believe we had 21 yards on 7 carries.. 3 yard avg.
