Re: Debunking An NFL Myth?

Proudly copied off the Herd board: an interesting take on pass percentage / vs. wins

http://www.ramsrule.com/theoriginalh...ode=full&page=

This is during Martz tenure as HC.

2000 only 70% pass/run - Trent Green won.
2001 only 1 70% pass/run - Rams lost.
2002 4 70% pass/run - 2-2 (Bulger win and Martin win in last game of season vs Niners)

3-3 over those 3 seasons.

So expand this some and make it 65% passing

2000 6 games with 65%+ passing = 2-4
2001 3 games with 65%+ passing = 1-2
2002 11 games with 65%+ passing = 3-8

Now does anyone honestly believe Martz knows his team went 6-14 when they pass on 65% or more of their plays from '00 to '02?

2003

2 games over 70% passing - 0-2 dropping the record to 3-5
5 games over 65% passing (including Carolina game).
