We controlled the line of scrimmage and physically imposed our will. We set the tone early and often that we WERE going to run the ball. The passing game was enough to keep them honest and provide good balance, but it was the run game that allowed us to control the tempo, and ultimately the outcome.

With as good as the passing game is now under our new staff, with the running game as good as it showed Saturday, assuming they can do the same to higher level competition, we can be sneaky good this season. But we HAVE to tighten up the pass defense. The D line REALLY needs to step up too.

The passing game opens up the running game. It forces the linebackers into coverage which then opens up the running game. You have to have a balanced attack.
ReplyI agree with the other guy. We would not have nearly as much success with the running game if there was no passing game. I O line is not powerful enough to just bull doze everyone in the box if there were no Passing game.
