Are you even listening to yourself
The results were +12 yards and the clock kept running. What difference would running the ball do based on those results? Were you expecting two 10+ yard runs to get the 1st down on 1st and 20?
This is just moronic thinking. THE PASSES WORKED. THEY KEPT THE CLOCK RUNNING. Guess what a 6 yard rushing average gets you? THE SAME 12 YARDS.
It made no difference whatsoever.
Plus, guess what plays get called for offensive holding? RUNNING PLAYS.
I can easily argue that running the play before those two passes lost us the game because we got called for holding on it. Far less likely to get called for holding if passing on 1st and 10.
