Yes and no. If a balanced or run first team is throwing 40+ during a game, something went very wrong in that game (down by double digits, etc).
But pass first offenses, like CZT use, 40+ seasons reads like a who’s who of QB’s. Name like Peyton, Ben, Brees, Flacco, Matt Ryan, Warren Moon, Tony Romo, Phillip Rivers and Matthew Strafford. All but Strafford we’re on winning teams and Detroit was an excellent offensive team. If you expand a little, Brady, Luck and many others show up.
Also LSU averaged almost 38 passes per game. Consider the amount of blowout victories with the backup QB in the game is when CEH got his most work running the football. A dangerous weapon is what he brings to the passing game.(55 receptions for 453 yards).
