It's as simple as this; put a good passing team against a good running team and the passing team will win; that's the modern game with the rules that exist now. 'Back in the day' a statement like that would not have been true. Certainly we'd like a stud RB... but we need a stud o-line, QB and WR first. A balanced offense is great, and so far ours has been... we've been equally weak in both our passing and running game. That's got to change, and the passing game needs to 'man up' first.

 

That wins football games, but the teams who win championships are still the ones who can run, and who can stop the run.

 

When playoffs come around, everything changes.

 

Obviously, you need a passing game.  But a passing game without a running game (balance), gets you not very far in the playoffs (if you get there.)
