Well ... I mean ... yeah. You can ask Herm Edwards about that. How can the narrative NOT change based on wins? Do you often hear people talk about how terrible a coaching job the guy who just won the national championship did? Coaches can only do so much. But having a bunch of close games should be where coaching makes the most difference, shouldn't it? If we repeatedly lost games in large part due throwing the ball too much, how is that not a valid criticism of the coaches? And it's kind of glazing over the point to say we were 50/50 on the year (which we weren't). We lost all five games that we threw it more than 40 times. We were 4-1 in games we threw it 30 or fewer times. We may have been close to balanced for the year but decidedly not from one game to the next. Running the ball more and not having TA run more are not mutually exclusive. Everybody knows that running has less chance for error than passing - so if running is working teams are going to do it more often then not. Passing has to be used when the run is not working or a team is behind - it is also a nice way to keep a defense honest. Looking at a stat line after a loss and seeing more passes then usual doesn't mean that is what caused the loss. Possible we were behind early and or saw the run game being stuffed. So you haven't been reading the thread. Noted.
