A couple big fumble returns or int returns can sway the numbers a bunch.<br /><br />And that's correct about bad passing teams needing to pass more. The worse they are at passing, the more they fall behind, the more they need to pass, playing to their weakness.Brian Burkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12371470711365236987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38600807.post-47955024850661761762011-11-25T04:07:10.182-05:002011-11-25T04:07:10.182-05:00I mean, those can all be explained situationally e...I mean, those can all be explained situationally except NYG. GB really can't pass a lot more, they are perfectly aware they are built to throw a ton and a large portion of their running is clock killing. Ten is in denial that CJ is terrible right now so there gonna be trying to run it more than the stats indicate they are capable of. For Minny I don't think its a lack of awareness that they're better running as much as its a "once you're down you can't really run anymore" thing. Coughlin likes to be a "running team" even though Jacobs is at best a mediocre talent with Bradshaw out and they're obviously loaded at WR. So yeah, the Giants definitely should be more pass heavy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38600807.post-66824832187580295232011-11-23T18:48:26.289-05:002011-11-23T18:48:26.289-05:00Odd that Run and Pass EPA aren't better correl...Odd that Run and Pass EPA aren't better correlated. It looks to me like teams such as GB, NYG, and Ten need to pass a lot more, while MIN should run more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38600807.post-67008086580452968092011-11-23T14:38:48.005-05:002011-11-23T14:38:48.005-05:00This visualization is awesome.
