I doubt it's anywhere near close.8 out of 10 times could you call if it was a run or pass? I think that may actually not be that far off.

Well you figure 50% you'd get right just by chance. I think we can all agree it's higher than 5/10. I'd be willing to bet I could nail 7/10 fairly easily as a run or pass given down and distance and the formation we are in. So no, I wouldn't say 8/10 is a stretch at all.I doubt it's anywhere near close.

I mean I have pointed it out during games many times. There was a breakdown last year of pass percentage out of shotgun and run percentage out of under center plays and it was shocking how often that alone indicated what we were doing. I wouldn't even know where to begin to find that article again but it was pretty damning.Let's see you do it in a live situation.
We just don’t have the OL play of 2016 to sustain this kind of approach the length of the field anymore. That’s an unrealistic approach. The situation was made worse with our crazy accurate kicker becoming a mere mortal thanks to nagging injuries.How many times has the play sequence gone: run for 4, run for 4, pass with 2 yards to go? It's infuriating and extremely predictable? They will have to fix that shit or we are in for another frustrating year.
Trade for Earl Thomas and we may be close to that on defense.We just don’t have the OL play of 2016 to sustain this kind of approach the length of the field anymore. That’s an unrealistic approach.

Teams should strive for 50% run/pass on first and second down.
What would help is a stronger defense getting us the ball back more often.
Yeah with Connor William's and a healthy Smith we could be right there with 2016 again.Trade for Earl Thomas and we may be close to that on defense.
Also I think the OL may be close to 2016 level.
Earl would help, but ultimately he’s a band-aid. He’d patch us up for several games, and then paper thin depth will crack under the first injury or more likely the lack of situational preparation will fail us vs Drew or Aaron in the playoffs yet again.Trade for Earl Thomas and we may be close to that on defense.

Uhhh..... that's very good question.Oh, look. [MENTION=21]Iamtdg[/MENTION] now a stat-master.
