re: Passing to win. Running to lose.

it's also a FACT that a certain level of passing has been used by every title winning team in the modern era (and we're currently well under the pace of the least-passing team who won a title in the BCS era)

You know damn well "on pace" doesn't mean anything after 3 games. We're also "on pace" to rush for ~3,800 yards on the season. How does that stack up against the average BCS team? We're on pace for zero turnovers on the year, that'd be quite the accomplishment as well.

Here's what I don't get. "We're going to have to throw for 250 to win a game one day!" Well, maybe. Why does that mean we should be trying to throw for 250 even when we don't need it to win? If the argument is that we need to work on the passing game, your beef is with how we allocate practice time (which nobody in the board has any clue about).
