Again too much multitasking for you. What did I say?
Not receptions. Not rushing attempts. But production. Perhaps I could have said yardage or matriculating the ball.
This is where it matters knowing the difference between mean, median, and mode.
I concede, to your point, there was quite a number of participants receiving and rushing the ball. And this isn’t entirely insignificant. But, as they say, the devil is in the details. A closer look reveals that the sum yardage of all receivers not named Williams equaled to only 20 yards more than Williams. So about 50% of our passing yardage went to one receiver. As I said, that’s not spreading the load around.
For our rushing totals, our QB carried the ball the same number of times as all others combined. In terms of yardage, our QB was responsible for 68% of all rushing yardage, at 7.3 ypc vs only 3.5 for all others.
So call it Cliff Notes, but that’s two players generating a disproportionate amount of offensive production.
I only highlight these stats because our offense completely fell flat for over half the game, exhausting our D and losing our lead in the process.
