Now, if you had bothered to read my response you will see that I did not say anything about how much teams throw the ball.  Instead I addressed the value of the running game.  That is all I have discussed in this thread.  I have never said I cared at all about what the league was called or if teams threw more than they ran.

Go read all of the posts in this thread then you will understand what we were talking about.

Like I stated above, it's a passing league.

The league passed it last year way more than they threw it. Only two teams last year threw it less than they ran it. What your statement means is that a balanced attack with 55% throws and 45% runs is better than a non balanced attack with 70% throws and 30% runs. 

It is still a passing league and the teams that ran it more than other teams still threw it more than they ran it. The run game has definitely been devalued and is nowhere nearly an emphasis it was 30 or 40 years ago.
