Quote:Talent makes the difference in whether certain plays are more likely to work, coaching makes the difference in whether the more likely to work play is called in the first place.

So then why not just play exclusively to your strengths?

 

If the Jaguars unquestioned strength is passing the ball, why bother to run the ball at all?  For that matter, why kick FGs or even punt?  Certainly Bortles is more reliable than Myers, right?  Just have Bortles drop back and chunk it every play, wholly irrespective of the circumstances in the game.

 

If the Jaguars unquestioned strength is defense, then why run offense at all?  If the defense turns the ball over or forces a punt, why not just punt it back immediately so that the team's strength is always in a position to affect the game?
