Yes, someone mentioned that I was incorrect to assess Maroney using "conventional wisdom." That's exactly what I did. I'm not sure where to find data on the distribution of run lengths, other than game logs. Do you know of a source for this data?

If you want BGJE and don't want Maroney, you have disproven your own theory because Maroney was the exact antithesis of what you are saying he was, which you use as the reason he sucks.

You realize that you want your offense to do the exact opposite of what you want the other team's offense to do, right?
To be clear, I want BGJE (or the consistent guy who doesn't lose yards) on my offense. I want Maroney (or the guy who has a few 10+ yard carries but doesn't pick up much, or anything the rest of the time) on the opponents offense.

No. I'm saying I don't want my defense to get gashed often,

I don't either. Nobody does. But I don't think it necessarily means the run defense is bad. |
