Imagine for a moment a world without hypothetical situations...
5 running plays and 4 passing plays in the 3rd Q drive.
7 running plays and 6 passing plays in the 4th Q drives up to the 3 victory formations.
Plus a field goal and 2 punts. I'm counting play intent so QB scrambles or sacks indicate intent to pass.
12 run to 10 pass is still more run than the first half.
But one game result isn't going to make anyone's case. This was not even the best example of the tendency we are complaining about. Until the last drive, the run game was more effective than passing in the 2nd half.
I will admit that evidence of my complaint is hard to find in that 4th quarter lead chart. The percentage difference between NE and GB is as scant as vince predicted it would be.
I do wonder how it looks for top competition and playoffs.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
