move beyond the notion that running the football leads to championships

[scpanther22]

from Cam Cameron

“Football has changed for the better,” he said. “Just look at last year’s Super Bowl. People have got to move beyond the notion that running the football leads to the championships. It doesn’t. If you just look over the last 10 years, it doesn’t.

“We all want to run the football, but you don’t have to run the football to win as much as people think. The rules have changed, the game has changed.”

Who is Cam Cameron? You can run the ball when you have a lead. It's equated to winning championships because you'll typically have less big defensive plays when you run. Shorten the game, force turnovers. That will never go away.

Wait...didn't the Ravens call more rushing plays than anyone else in the whole NFL last year and go to the playoffs?

[panther4life]

actually i think hes saying you cant be 1 dimensional anymore. if your have a really strong running game but no passing game at all you'll get killed.

Yep, the Panthers are living proof of this.

Cam Cameron is only the best offensive coordinator in the league.

Having an incompetant QB at the helm does that to your team.

wrong. running the football is still critical. that doesn't mean the majority of your plays have to be running plays, but if you aren't at least capable of grinding it out on the ground, your offense becomes one dimensional and therefore easy to stop.
