[QUOTE="Deleted member 2897, post: 412079"] Well, we did try to throw last year, but only completed 37% of them. :D Hence running the ball 85% of the time. (~120 pass attempts vs ~625 rushing attempts). If we're completing 37% of our passes, we SHOULDN'T try and throw more. In 2016, by comparison, we threw 160 passes (30% more, and completed 30% more of what we did throw) vs about 600 rushing attempts. So we ran the ball 80% of the time. We won 9 games that year. So we're really only talking about a small percentage difference. About 4 more throws per game. But you have to be able to connect on some reasonable percentage of them or the defense doesn't need to cover it. [/QUOTE]
