2018 NFL coach rankings: Bill Belichick and then ...

I know. But Payton himself has admitted to getting away from the run in the years in between. I agree with you that there is a cause and effect situation to take in but in those years where we put up far larger differences in pass attempts, I can't help but feel a difference in how we move the ball and control the game. You see the benefits of running more when you do pass, as well. I will not mind at all if Payton makes some assumptions about the cause and effect :cool:
