Then it could be passed off as just an exaggeration. But the truth is that except for '09 Brat was actually in the bottom half of the league in running on first down.
So it wasn't just that you were exaggerating a point that might have had a little truth to it. The problem was that you were so totally and completely wrong. Why would you try to even make a joke to agree with someone who is so ridiculously wrong?
Here is an example to show what I mean. If you made a one liner exaggeration about Dalton throwing a lot of interceptions it could be passed of as a joke to prove a point. But if you make a one liner joke about Aaron Rogers throwing a lot of interceptions you are just stupid.
Get it now? I am sorry if I call out stupid when I see it. I am sorry it makes you so upset. but I am going to keep on doing it.
Like when a guy claims that Andrew Hawkins was an outside receiver in 2012? That kind of stupid?
Was Brat our OC for just 1 year, or am I missing something here? Why do you only show his statistics for 1 season alone? What were his 1st down statistics in the other 9 years of being an OC here? Or where do you get your information? I'd like to look at it myself.
Also, please realize that the joke of "run, run, incompletion, punt" isn't saying" Omg Brat runs too much on first down!" (the way you decided to decipher it), it just simply means an OC is predictable. I know plenty of people that have used "run, run, pass, punt" to jab an OC and they didn't mean that he ran it on first down way too much. You're just reaching and trying to twist things because that's the kind of person you are. I don't think anybody in the universe that has used that phrase was referring to their OC running too much on 1st.
