B & G scrimmage

Honestly, it is better to be bad against the run than the pass. ppl are forgetting that in 2006 we had issues with stopping the run.

In 2008, the difference in yards between the best pass defense and the worst pass defense was 3.4 yards per attempt.

In 2008, the difference in yards between the best rush defense and the worst rush defense was 1.8 yards per attempt.

Considering the correlation between total yards and points scored is pretty solid, and that the average defense faced about 960 plays last year. 1.6 yards per play makes a sizable difference.
