So I am not sure what's up with OP's obsession over 400 yard games. They're normally done by teams with crappy defenses or teams who lose. While I will be first on board Marvin being way too passive with a lead, good teams don't need 400 yard passing days to win. It's actually often not a very good thing.

We'll see if that starts changing now that the NFL is turning into a league where you can't play defense, but as of right now, this is a bad thread.

Generally speaking, either a team has no running game, or they're so far behind that passing is the only way to get back into the game. WTS, I'd love to see us have Dalton get his 400 yards and 6 TDs while Mixon and Gio each get 100 Yds when we play.
