To follow up on something that really shouldn’t need to be spelled out:
we have a bottom 5 performing QB this season. There has been nothing even remotely efficient about putting the ball in his hands.
We have a top 3 performing RB this season.
one of my biggest pet peeves of analytics is that when people just look at averages and ignore context. A statement of “passing is more efficient than running” is a generalized statement that ignores all context. Not to mention I’ve never seen any analytics that support passing the ball 80% of the time which is what we did on drive one
