Express your perspective on football game strategy and the importance of sticking with a strong run game, especially when down on the scoreboard.
If yer run game is the best thing going on your offense, it doesn't matter if yer down 7, 14 or 40pts, you stick with it and certainly don't abandon it in the 1st or 2nd qtr. 7 & 14 pts down isn't that many and we're talking about games where they ran it only 15, 17 & 22 times total (excluding the QB runs for his life)! Certainly those runs weren't all early and then abandoned. Passing didn't bring us back or even close for a last minute win, so what's the point, especially if poor passing/catching is digging the hole deeper. Not only were we passing from 30+ to 50 times (did McCoy mistake TS for PFM?), can you name a game last year or this year (excluding the 1st KC game in 2016 and we still lost that game!) where passing overcame being behind? Sorry, but it's widely known that a young QB's best weapon is a strong run game. We started 2017 with just that and our coaches saw fit to throw the following games onto Trevor's arm... I still say it was stupid!
