You have done shit to defend why Garrett got away from the 5.3 YPC from last year.
I'm not trying to defend that. It's meaningless to my point, which is, Garrett, like Linehan after him, is a product of the personnel, and actually -- despite what people like you have claimed, is not averse to running the ball when he knows it can work.
Yeah... he unreasonably abandoned the running game at key times like in the Packers game.... not arguing that, everyone knows it.
There is another point here, though, which you are either missing, or more likely, unwilling to acknowledge because it sinks your stupid "lulz Garrett is the worst" routine.
All you have done it state that the running game sucked before last year. It didn't last year since 5.3 YPC doesn't suck.
The line ended up with a 5.3 ypc last year overall, but was actually quite inconsistent early in the year. It wasn't till late in the year that it really started to click; hence, I am not making excuses for him ignoring it in those later games.
It is, however, understandable that it would take him a matter of time to trust it, even if it's not excusable in those specific instances.
You have no point other than to defend your boy all the way to the end, even though Linehan has proven proof positive that Garrett's offense sucked.
Well, Linehan is running Garrett's offense, so.... your point doesn't really make any sense.
Oh, Linehan is a better situational playcaller? Great.... still doesn't explain why Garrett would be allowing him to run the ball so much if he was against it. Still doesn't explain why Linehan only ran the ball 300-390 times in Detroit and is now on pace to have the best rushing attack in the league here.
You know what does explain it? Of course you do, because I've been telling you for years.
I look forward to your next stellar post consisting of some stat that doesn't even begin to address the nuances I have brought up in this post.
