assuming you throw more AND you are better on a per throw basis, then yeah it does work that way.
throwing the ball in the modern NFL is more effective than running the ball, on a per play and total basis. all of the best offenses now have ridiculous passing attacks (the Pats this year, Colts for most of these years, the Vikings and Rams before them) are all historically great offenses, and they were all built on great passing attacks.
teams that don't throw the ball a lot aren't doing it b/c running is better, they are doing it b/c they aren't good enough to have a passing attack.
if every team could throw the ball 45 times a game and be effective doing it (like the Pats), every team would.
What?
How long have you actually been a football fan?
You are entirely backwards.
First, Favre was NOT better on a per throw basis.
Secondly, it seems that you are saying GB lost because they threw because they could win that way, and Denver won because they ran because they have to since they couldnt throw. That is moronic.
Secondly, even the Patriots dont throw 45 times a game. And you have it backwards. If you COULD run and never have to throw, every team would chose to do that. You have less turnover risk, you control the clock, you beat your opponent into submission. You get a lead, you protect it.
