[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 17734, member: 639"] There is some truth to what you say, but I think some clarification is in order. If you want to compare effectiveness of the passing game to other offenses, using completion percentage is not the best place to start. I would say that 50% completions in our style of offense is equivalent in effectiveness to 60% in the mainstream styles. The reason I say this is all the dinks and dunks used in most offenses, which falsely inflate percentages are replaced with pitches and tosses (running plays) in ours. If you restrict yourself to, say, attempts of 7 yards or more, you will find that our completion rate compares favorably. Until we show we can recruit solid, to very good receivers, to this team, it is impossible to totally discount the naysayers in this regard. I would like to think that we can and will, but until we do it... The QBs we have now CAN pass well enough. I feel confident in the near future their play will bear that out. This offense will NEVER produce an OL who provides traditional level of pass protection, EVER. The splits are too wide to do that. So, we need to scheme our passing attack around that aspect. It is a mitigating factor for sure. Hopefully the one on one coverage enjoyed throughout the game will make up for this fact. [/QUOTE]
