What you talkin' about Rfaulk?

Just saying running the ball keeps the Defense honest so they cannot just pin their ears back and just go after Burrow...

Post #7.

Look at current completion percentages and interception percentages. This isn't the '80s and '90s. Teams pass more, for a higher completion% and lower interception%, using higher percentage, short passes in place of some runs. 

Simply passing more than you run isn't a bad thing. Passing twice as much as you run isn't a good thing.

Running the ball at 4 yds a clip isn't as good as it looks on paper. The "average" team runs it at 4.2 yards per clip currently. A 4 yard average means "half" of your runs are less than 4 yards. The "average" team passes it about 58% of the time. 

So the 60/40 pass/run split (that was mentioned before) is just a smidge higher than what middle of the pack teams are doing right now.
