"What I love about ARod is he doesn't just go for the low hanging fruit. We could have just ran the ball and won easily. But he's always looking to help Jake make progress. And you make progress when you make mistakes and try passing."
The number 1 job of an OC (Game-planning) is to put your team in a position to win. If winning means running the ball, then you run the ball... btw LJ Martin looked great, run blocking looked great, and even Sione Moa got in on the action with a great TD run.
(Note - I'm not criticizing ARod here.. I'm disagreeing with rcbyufan that ARod is actually doing what rcbyufan thinks he is doing)
