    Doesn't think 58 rushes is a sustainable model for winning modern era PAC 12 games. Maybe not every single game. But fuck QB perspective on this topic. No reason not to run 45 plus a game unless the other team proves they can stop it. Only 3 things can happen when you pass and 2 of them aren't good.

    You mean like Chip Kelly's offense at Oregon that averaged 300y/g over half a decade? Or like Stanford which went to 4 straight BCS bowls?
    Stanford had Andrew Luck and 8 OL/TE's that played on Sundays. The only guy who starts for them on this team blew his knee out against ASU

    Chip Kelly had better OL than people give him a credit for, a Heisman winner in Mariotta, skill wr's that all ran like Ross, and an offense system that no one had seen before at the P5 level

    Hugh's point was unless you have those types of teams you can't do that in today's cfb over the course of a season in a P5 conference and I would agree with that.

    That being said, you can tell he knows there is major issues going on with Jake and the passing game that aren't getting fixed in the next month.

    Some valid points here and I'm not saying that UW could stand to win a game against a legit CFP contender type team without being able to pass the ball a lot more effectively, so don't twist. But keep in mind that UW's 2017 Defense is giving up considerably fewer points in conference play than any of those Stanford or Oregon teams did in conference play. Goal #1 is win the conference, and if our receivers suck and our QB is playing like poo, we need to run the ball down the throats of shitty Pac defenses and play good defense. Passing game can be fixed in 2018 through the various aforementioned factors.

    Gil Dobie coached nine seasons at Washington without ever losing a game. And Gloomy Gil despised the forward pass.

    So there's that.

    The game shifts. The spread originally came because it gave less talented teams a way to compete. The big boys weren’t used to the field being spread out and having to defend in space.

    Now, if you run it right at teams, it’s easy to find success. Teams practice against the spread, recruit for it, and are too soft to man up and shut down the run for an entire game.

    Great point RoadDawg.

    There's some truth to this- e.g., the top of their Bell Curve in IQ tests is higher than that of white peoples.

    I miss RoadDawg being on the air; maybe Coker and DDY have him call in as a special guest.

    Bama is obviously the prime example. Over the past decade you barely remember who the Bammer QBs were, but you can name almost all their RBs off the top of your head.

    Every once in awhile you get a QB like Deshaun Watson who is just has “it” that doesn’t mean you need to lean on the run game as much. Even then, Clemson had a stable of great running backs too.

    So if you dont have a QB who can win then you just need to pound the ball on the ground and have a QB that doesn’t fuck that shit in the ass with a stout defense.

    Don James philosophy, run the football, defense, and special teams were the key to winning. So there's that.

    I believe it still applies to "modern" shit ball.

    And break the chemistry of DDY's rants and Coker barely audibly nodding in agreement?????






    I didn't think so.
