statistics are the only facts.

you can dismiss them but thats because you dont want to believe the truth. fact is that ingram takes more short yardage carries and his ypc reflects that. 3.6 ypc is great for a short yardage back that gets most of his carried when the defense knows we are going to run

no we dont impose any running games because we dont run the ball enough. we are a pass first...pass second...and maybe run the ball third but probably pass team

ignore facts all you want but ur fighting a losing battle and ur going to end up blaming the wrong ppl
