How is 527 attempts on the season "handcuffing the passing game?"


I'm sure he said that knowing the Jaguars led the league in rushing for much of the year, however, that helped the passing game. 

Regardless of leading the league in rushing at any point, the Jags did not handcuff the pass. 
They actually treated each opponent with an individual gameplan. Some leaned more to the run, some more to the pass. Sometimes the plan worked, sometimes it didn't. 

Regardless of the Jags clear intent to run the ball last season, the pass only went through moments of being  "handcuffed" for portions of a few individual games.  (four games by my recollection)
This isn't the first post I've seen claiming some sort of handcuffing of Bortles or the passing game and I'm simply making an effort to point out the inaccuracy of that narrative.
