It is ok that you cant respond,  since the majority of your come backs are something along the line of "Blake is gone get over it"....

Doesn't really apply in this context....

You're missing the point he's making about the game itself (superbowl 52). 
Not the season team stats. Though that factors in too. 

The eagles won the SB last year on 374 passing yards and 4 passing TDs.  And despite being ranked highly in the defensive categories you listed, they had to produce at least 34 points and a needed a dynamic passing game to get the win. 

Building a team around a run game and defense just won't work anymore if you can't have a productive passing counterpart. The league wants the pass, they are very proactive about proliferating it, and that isn't going away. If anything it is a trend that is only gathering steam moving forward.
