    What don't you understand about that the run game is over? It's an anachronism. It is the keep them honest factor and not much more these days. Live with it dood. Haunting a football board with incessant cries for more running when we run at a very typical number compared to the rest of the league is a pointless exercise. BB isn't going to run more because you have a nostalgia kick about it going on.

    Let this sink in. We score a ton of more points in recent years than we ever did in the SB years. It's the DEFENSE that is the problem. D E F E N S E.

    Wozzy would rather the Pats not pass and lose 20-0 than pass a lot and win 45-3.

    Was that the game where he had 23 carries for 144 yards?

    Re: Analyzing the interception.

    How did NE beat the Jets 37-16 this season?

    Before the last two drives, on their way to a 30-16 lead:

    31 passes, 17 runs. BJGE 8 runs for 8 yards. Man they gave up on him. 

    23 plays in shotgun ... too many right?

    Woodhead/Faulk: 12 carries for a 3.8 YPC. 

    How did NE win that game too?

    Again even MORE passes, less runs for BJGE, less yards for BJGE.

    Somehow NE literally stomped the Jets out there? How?


    There is no formula.

    No, that was the game that Brady had three TD's and McGinest sacked Manning on the last play.

    I played offensive and defensive line for seven years. Seven. 

    I coached defensive line for another three. 

    You know what we hated on defense?

    The hurry up offense where the QB passed a lot. No huddle wastes a defensive line.

    You know how often OL complain about passing. Not very. 

    It's anecdotal, and doesn't affect the numbers I'm posting.

    In Response to Re: Analyzing the interception. : Do you just make things up? Brady's sack% is lower this season than any of the SB years. Your logic isn't backed up by anything. We had a good defense in the SB years. It has nothing to do with running.

    Of course. He will likely end up with less INTs, more TDs, less sacks, less QB hits about a TD per game higher offensive score. 

    It makes me miss Weiss.

    They run because that's all they can do. You go with your strength. Which means you don't give the ball to BJGE and take it from Brady and Gronk.

    You're ability to see into the future and to see alternate universes where New England ran the ball more against the Giants in 07' would come in really helpful in F-ing fantasy land.

    At 3.4 yards a pop?

    The Super Bowl was lost because the defense couldn't hold the lead for two minutes.

    The left one gets balky when it rains. The left hip too. It was injured my sophomore year in one-on-ones by a guy named Trevor.

    My back is the most crucially messed up. I have a pair of discs that are pinched. 

    It is anecdotal. But it's the truth from my perspective.

    A 3 minute drive with 12 plays is a sprint for the QB all the time. 

    A 7 minute drive with 12 plays is a lot of time waiting for the next play to start, and catching your breath.

    Well the three of you continue playing with each other here, I'm afraid I've got to step away from the cpu for now.

    Again with the three of you ganging up on me, while I'm gone, maybe you can figure out how..

    2001 Patriots passed the ball 482 times / ran it 473 times
    2003 Patriots passed the ball 537 times / ran it 473 times
    2004 Patriots passed the ball 485 times / ran it 524 times..

    ..doesn't equal balance?  Also maybe you cockknuckles can explain where you got all your screwy stats that are supposed to convince my eyes that what I saw back then wasn't a power running team that thrived off play action, screens and efficient clock management.  Or that somehow our trending away from this balance is in no way the root cause for embarrassing playoff loss after playoff loss?  Good luck!

    And those offenses won playoff games with scores of 13, 10, 20 and 17.

    Which one of those scores would have been enough to beat the Giants, Ravens or Jets in 2007, 2009, or 2010?

    The flaw in your logic is that balance had anything to do with the superior results from those years. WE SCORE MORE ON O NOW. So the balance on offense cannot be the cause of lesser results. THE D SVCKS. There's your problem.
