You don't think that starting from your own 15 (or 11, by the way, which happened off the second kick-off, but how many times do I have to point out that you post false information and just assume that we'll all swallow it because it comes from you?) has an effect on play calling instead of starting from the 20?
9 (or even 5) yards difference makes a big difference in play calling when you're that deep in your own territory because, for one, defenses will play a lot tighter and not fear giving up a big play because they know offenses won't risk having the quarterback stand in the pocket long enough to take a sack, making it difficult to complete shorter passes.
Actually I am completely serious. The opposing defense does not play any different when we start at the 15 than when we start at the 20. And our offense does not call different plays when we start at the 15 or 20.
If you actually looked at the plays we called you would realize that I am 100% correct. Even when we got a penalty and had first down on our own 6 we threw the ball aggressively down the field.
