Cuse fits in the top quadrant of "Good Offense + Good Defense" when it comes to the delta between "explosive plays on offense" and "explosive plays allowed on defense."
It's how the Packers just beat the Cardinals, how the Titans could win the AFC, and how the Giants beat the Bills in the Norwood super bowl, old school football.Never going to turn down a big play. But, for these last games, would rather see us do sustained scoring drives, with double digit 1st downs. Shortening the game, and keeping opponents' offense off the field is the way to go, imo.

There's a lot of ways to win games - I don't think we can afford to be too choosy. I prefer the "get points" however they come method.Never going to turn down a big play.

most teams get big plays on blown pass coverages. That was most of what BC got.. We get so few of those and still get a bunch. Add a couple of those a game and we have an offense.Also our “explosive” plays are just generally our normal plays that turn into something. Tucker and Shredder runs are examples. I bet we are the leader in explosive run plays.
Yeah I don’t think I recall a team with so many big plays that were not blown coverage pass plays but just “normal” run plays. Shows how special Tucker and Shredder aremost teams get big plays on blown pass coverages. That was most of what BC got.. We get so few of those and still get a bunch. Add a couple of those a game and we have an offense.
look a that stat in the upper left.. bad offense good D.

Yeah watching Iowa trying to throw the ball makes Gilbert look like Bill Walshlook a that stat in the upper left.. bad offense good D.
Mich/Ind/Iowa/Purdue/Wisc/Psu/Minn/Ind.. Half the b10 is there..
then add NW/ILL/Rut/MD in the lower Quandrant
maybe the B10 D isnt that good its just a lot of bad offenses
sad much of the top 25 is in the top right.. we really have not gotten much from a pretty decent year with the stats.

game after game of highlights and guys running 10 yds open for long TDs.. what have we had maybe 3-4 all yr? with teams playing the run so much you would think every game we would see one of those but we dont.
yeah long runs.. but when was the last long TD pass into a blown coverage? Albany and? I bet wake has had 10-15 this season..Maybe I'm misreading your post, but didn't we just have two in Saturday's game? We've had quite a few long runs for TDs past 10 yards. Heck we had at least one the weekend before.

We run so much no safeties rolling up no DBs rolling up. Now there have been guys open deep we havent seen or thrown too on occasion.
Hard when you throw 15 times a game. The wake guy throws 55 timesyeah long runs.. but when was the last long TD pass into a blown coverage? Albany and? I bet wake has had 10-15 this season..

yeah we had one but was not a blown coverage or even really all the open..Ok, I can get on board about long passes, BUT we just did have one that beat VTech. Passing is certainly an issue, right now. We are running the ball on another level.
i will give you that.. all the more reason though to have a few blown ones for us. but he doesnt really throw that much.. look at the gamesHard when you throw 15 times a game. The wake guy throws 55 times
