Its not that the run sets up the pass but that an effective run game inherently compliments itself with a passing game. Is it a coincidence that Aaron Rodgers had the best year of his career while playing with the most run focused offense of his career?A good running game means PA passing on first and second down. It means that your third downs are more often going to be third and short. It means LBs forced to wait for the run before bailing out into coverage, it means a safety having to play closer to the LoS, it means DLs forced to stack up and look for a ball carrier as opposed to getting straight after the quarterback and it means that you wont see a lot of 7 tech and wide 9 edge rushers looking to take your quarterback's head off. Yes you can find good backs throughout the draft, but more often than not the best offenses have a back taken within the first 3 rounds and for good reason.</blockquote>
