WHY I WOULD RUN THE BALL

It’s March, which for the NFL, means free agency begins. While some top players are changing teams let’s take a look at some strategy behind the game.

The pass game has become the most popular part of football. Everyone likes to see a lot of passes during the game. It makes the game more exciting.  Is passing the best way to win the game?

In some cases yes,  but it depends on the coaches approach to the game. Passing a lot usually means scoring fast. When you score fast that gives the other team an opportunity to get the football and score. It also usually puts your defense on the field more often, so you better have a good defense.  That’s why I would run the ball more if I was an offensive coordinator in the NFL.

If you run the ball you can control the clock. If you can control the clock you essential control the outcome of the game. You don’t even need a great running back to do so.  As long as you have an above average offensive line and a good playing calling scheme you can be successful running the football.

If you want to be successful you have to win games and running the football is one way to control the flow of the game.  Another plus to running the ball is if you stay to your game plan of running the defense will have to adjust there scheme to try and stop you.  When that happens it will open up your passing attack.
