My little pet FOF/TCY peeve that I've neglected to ever mention.

GAME PLANNING!!!

3rd and 1, I want to run it 80+% of the time, but 3rd and 2 is about 50/50 pass. I don't like the yardage breakdowns, and never have. I wish we had five categories:

1 2-4 5-9 10 11+

Anyway, just thought I'd vent.

I thought you ran 80% of the time on every down and distance.

Shame on you. Coach Dooley would never pass 50% of the time on 3rd and 2.

I was under the impression you liked to run the ball. I guess not.

Dola,

I suppose that 3rd and 2 is a spread 5 reciever set for you as well.

Interesting.......


(Make note when facing SkyDog in IHOF think "run" on 3rd & 1, either way on 3rd & 2.)

Bump so everyone can see that SkyDog isn't as big of a running guy as he pretends to be. Sad really.

Depends on how good my back is on 3rd down. If he's low elusiveness and high inside and 3rd, I'll go back up to 80%, thank ya very much! Here's one of my favorite backs ever. I HATED not being able to afford to keep him. How 'bout that 2015 season?! 4.2 yards per carry, with no carry greater than 22 yards (2013-2015 are his post-patch seasons.) That's a whole bunch of 3,4 and 5 yard carries. With a back like that, I might not ever pass.
