[QUOTE="El Guapo, post: 798321, member: 5830"] I looked at the play-by-play of our drives last night at Foxboro. The evidence is pretty clear to me that when we run the ball and are balanced, we move down the field. When we switch to passing mode only, we get stopped in our tracks. Our 3 & out drives were cookie cutter with a predictable run, pass, pass play selection. The drives were we approached a 50% run/pass ratio resulted in touchdowns. Our lone FG came with a 33% run/pass ratio. All of our failed drives either were generally dominated by passing plays. The times we got first downs, we ran once or twice and then passed the ball 5 or more times straight leading to a stalled drive. Drive #1 4 rushes / 8 passes (33% ratio) Result: FG Trend: the last 5 plays when the drive stalled were all passes Drive #2 2 rushes / 6 passes Result: Punt Trend: 2 rushing plays early got a first down and then set up 2nd & 5, then five straight pass plays leading to a punt Drive #3 0 rushes / 3 passes Result: Punt Trend: pass, pass, pass Drive #4 6 rushes / 8 passes (43% ratio) Result: Touchdown !!! Trend: Good mix of rush/pass throughout the drive Drive #5 1 rush / 5 passes Result: Punt Trend: After a 7 yard run to start the drive, the last 5 plays were passes ---Halftime--- Drive #6 4 rushes / 4 passes (50% ratio) Result: Touchdown !!! Trend: Decent mix of run/pass with 3 straight runs in the red zone gaining 19 yards Drive #7 1 rush / 2 passes Result: Punt Trend: run, pass, pass Drive #8 2 rushes / 3 passes Result: Fumbleroosky Trend: Good mix again was leading to another score until the fumble Drive #9 1 rush / 2 passes Result: Punt Trend: run, pass, pass Drive #10 1 rush / 9 passes Result: Turned over on downs Trend: It's easy to defend when you know the ball is coming through the air [/QUOTE]
