Jeremy Hill far ahead of his production last year

Over the past five seasons, offenses have averaged 5.8 yards per play from Shotgun (not counting the Wildcat or other college-style option plays), but just 5.0 yards per play with the quarterback under center. This wide split exists even if you analyze the data to try to weed out biases like teams using Shotgun more often on third-and-long, or against prevent defenses in the fourth quarter. Shotgun offense is more efficient if you only look at the first half, on every down, and even if you only look at running back carries rather than passes and scrambles.

The Pats run a ton of Shotgun. What if the teams that run shotgun just tend to be better teams?
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
