Normally I'd be more in favor of slinging it around, but with Chase in a giant slump and the line being subpar at best, I think balance is important.
Also, people seem to be adjusting their opinions based on wanting to see a fun pass offense with all these weapons, but I'll again say this: how many times has a team from this division dominated while throwing it 600+ times?
Maybe Pittsburgh a couple times? Maybe once with Flacco? But those years where they slung it around didn't end all that well for the most part. We're one of the only cold weather divisions with no domes.
I'm not saying we should be averaging less than 30 pass attempts. Keyword here is balance. Especially this year with the issues we've had throwing the ball lately (over the last 7 games).

The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
