1st downs & 3rd down conversions & thoughts
#3
They get -2 to 2 yards on 1st down rushing, then their success is dependent upon getting a completion on 2nd down for a good gain.

If they don't, they are stuck at 3rd and 8 or so, and the defense knows you have to pass, so they just pin their ears back and the OL sucks.

They can't improve on 3rd down until they improve their running game, which they often use on 1st down.
