Well, in my case, I predicted McCord would throw for 42 touchdowns and 4500 yards in the Cali thread... It would actually really suck if we run for 372 yards and 5 TDs and he only throws for 142 yards and 1 TD.Weird logic. You can't really "rely" on anything. We know losing while throwing the ball a lot isn't fun either. We saw that in the early Dino years. I don't care if we win games like 1995 Nebraska or 1984 BYU. I suspect we'll have games we run over people and some we throw it around. I think both are fun. And with both methods players won't be wasted.
I don't get why some people don't think watching a good running game is fun. There's so many moving pieces. I think a long run is more exciting than a long pass because it typically requires a guy breaking at least one tackle and making 1 or more guys miss along with other guys making great blocks. Is it that people just like numbers?
I'm rooting for a 17/21 day with 4 of the 17 being long touchdowns because they just can't catch our guys.

I'd be ok with 330 and 4 TDs in a game where we rush the ball 55 times.
EDIT: On a weird note, I keep typing McNown whenever I mean McCord. It made me think about how different eras in football were... If McCord "only" throws for McNown's senior year stats, we will be disappointed, yet they were good enough for McNown to get drafted 12th overall in 1999.
