The difference is 2% or less, so to me not much difference over 10 years of league data. I know you like crunching numbers. I still would base my play calls more on my players abilities and strengths than any other factor (my second factor would be my opponents weaknesses). We have not had powerful run blocking centers and guards (although the addition of O'Cryrus might improve things in that area) and big bruising power backs in recent years. So this supports the concepts of spread formations, allow Allen to throw on occasion, or give Allen the option to run. All of these can be done from a shotgun but are not exclusive to a shotgun. I think we are agreeing.

I don't think the sky is falling because we are 0-2 either. If we win 5 in a row and get to 5-2 I still won't say we are a playoff team either. Points are points, every games counts, but we have a long season ahead of us and this roster looks like it will challenge for the 7th or 8th spot if the goaltending holds up.

What matters is one or two years of data on our team. Data with our QB, our OC, our OL, and our RBs. Ten years of data of the whole league should look like a wash Success comes having the personnel to execute the scheme, not the scheme by itself

I feel it is a little early to call the Tage line lazy. It is actually ridiculous to think that cutting their ice time in game 3 is going to help them. Game one they looked rusty so take into consideration that they did not play much, or together, in preseason. Game two they really started to generate chances by the last half of the game. They had some good shifts. They need to play more, not less. Big goal scorer tend to be streaky and score in bunches.

Taro was more of a sniper and somewhat of a puck hog too.

Well those are the basic facts of running from the two formations. A benefit the shotgun gives you is the threat of the quick pass. Which is why Dorsey is using it, it makes you think pass. From the shotgun the defense has to think about the quick slant or fade into the end zone. For runs from the shotgun to work he is counting on the IOL to win their battles, and they quite often do not, especially when they are outnumbered in the middle. Of course, being under center gives you the option of play action too.
