Too much is always made of power run vs passing...The fact is and theres no arguing this the best teams in the country at any level are teams that are balanced. By balanced i don't mean equal runs and pass. What i mean is you have to be able to be effective at both. Great teams can throw when needed and run when needed. I know there are exception (belfry) but make no mistake about it belfry has great talent year in and year out and they could win regardless of what they do. They have had Qbs in the past that can throw just as good as they run. They facts are to be as good as you can possibly be you need balance. This old 3 yards and a cloud of dust mentality is ridiculous. You will never beat great teams that way (thats been proven at Bell county). Also no one needs to throw is 70 times a game. You show me a team with no balance 99 times out of 100 that team will not be an elite team.

balance describes it perfectly
