Like I said, I agree that BUF has a better OL than we do, but it is important not to overstate the difference.
And we definitely should not be running the ball more when we are ranked 30th in YPC, a clear indication that we suck at running the ball. And this is especially so on early downs as our poor running game consistently puts Herbert behind the sticks, which allows the defense to...get a better pass rush. Our early down run heavy tendencies are actually a significant contributing factor to our OL's poor pass block and pass rush win rates.
If we were to throw more on early downs, our pass protection win rates would improve.
And yes, the negative results are due to Lynn's poorly conceived early down run heavy game plans.
