Interesting story in the Houston Chronicle this morning about how mostly running teams are still in the playoffs.
I love it. To me, true football is good old smashmouth, knock your opponent into your submission - not the 40 to 50 passing attempts we see in many games. Give me three run plays to every pass play every time. Yes it makes games go quicker (which is one reason writers love covering running teams), but moreso it separates the men from the boys.
Don't get me wrong - I really don't have much against the spread offense. It's just at the end of the day, teams who have two dimensions on offense and pride themselves in strong defense usually will be the teams left standing.
