Do More ppl prefer run or pass heavy offense?

[CrossTown]

I generally recruit the best players I can get at positions of need and then adjust my offense accordingly. I try to be balanced but if I have players that involve one aspect of the game and not the other, I'll stick with that one aspect. So stud running back, mediocre QB sees a heavy run offense. Stud QB, decent receivers, mediocre back sees a pass oriented offense. If I've got stud players everywhere - pro style offense, steady mix of run and pass.

I originally went with pass-heavy offenses, but I've shifted more towards a balanced or run-heavy scheme after a while with the game.

I prefer to pound it out on the ground, smashmouth football. However, the buck doesn't stop at RB. I've got to have somebody to throw to, someone to keep the defense on their heels.

Controlling the clock is a big part of my gameplan. Having long, drawn out drives and wearing the defense down. I've always been more about that style of play than any other way.
Probably going back to the days when Nebraska ran the option and that's how I started playing that way.

I really like both the Smashmouth style and the Air Raid style, but I usually run a balanced Spread team. I like to start using short to medium passes and runs, then I try to sneak in a long pass to catch the defense off guard. I'd say I pass a little more than I run, maybe 55/45. A lot of those passes are short passes to the HB though, so I recruit HBs a little bit more heavily than WRs.

I'm generally very run heavy. In fact, I'm not looking at my online dynasty stats, but playing as Syracuse, I think my second running back has more carries than my quarterback has passing attempts.

When I do pass, it's short, high percentage pass, mostly slants routes, but occasionally I try stretching the defense with a play-action.

Definitely balanced. If you are playing a team that is very good at taking away one part of the game you have the other to fall back on (If your school can do both). That's why I love pro offenses and playbooks because generally they have a very good set of both passing and running plays as well as shotgun and play action to mix things up.

Then you'll love this... using the Oklahoma State offense {Air Raid} I had a drive that went 98 yards in 17 plays and took 7:44 off the clock. All passes. Had to convert one 4th down. The Air Raid in this game is so much fun.

I have noticed too that Houston's and Ok. State's playbooks appear to be identical. Put me down for Pass Heavy!

Pass heavy both online, and vs cpu. About 50/50 vs friends.
