Total finesse.
Last time Pollack was here, we ranked 8th in YPC (best ranking since 2000)...but we ranked 26th in carries. We really need to bring some balance back to the offense. In all 7 years we made the playoffs, we ranked no lower than 17th in carries, and we were top 10 in 5 of those years.
We're not going to suddenly become the first AFCN team to dominate while throwing like the Drew Bress Saints...just because we have Burrow and Chase. This is a running division. Always has been. Cold weather and no domes. Tough defense. I feel like Zac is trying to reinvent the wheel here and doesn't quite get it. The FO should get it, but of course they don't.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
