Where there's smoke there's fire.

I think the notion that Winston will ever throw for 5k yards for us is folly….we have been a run heavy team now for a few years….I don’t see that changing drastically….between 4-4.5k and a repeat of the TD/INT ratio would be ideal

In the NFL passing yards occur when the team is behind and the leading team is playing prevent

the other situation is when you are playing against a high potent offense/QB and you need to score to compensate

But the real reason we dont have to have Winston pass crazy is because of our defense

our defense always has our team in the game and within range (1 score) in the 4th quarter

DA as the defensive coord minded HC, Louie is expecting the same philosophy
