Your sarcasm is super cute, but you were implying that the NFL was making strategic play-calling decisions on the basis of something other than the goal of winning football games. I'm simply pointing out that what you wrote is nonsense.
No he wasn't. Nfl teams pass because it is a passing league as they have the best QBS ON THE PLANET. In CFB only one or two , in a given draft year, will go on to start in the nfl as a rookie. The college teams that these qbs came from , probably did pass more , but that is such a small % of CFB qbs, that it makes power running games , on of the best way to win.

I agree that it is tough for colleges to land an elite QB.
But it's even tougher for colleges to land an elite offensive line. It's actually five times tougher.

This was one of the first things I was explaining to him. Rush offense with play action is easier to execute. Put the ball in the air more then 30 times you get turnovers and at best flop field position in college at worst pick 6.
It just seems that teams have left the power I and pro sets. And it's apparent people are having a hard time physically matching up with that strategy. The nfl is a different ball of wax entirely.
Doesn't matter. If I know what you are going to run, you fricked. You can always attempt a pass. But if you can't even attempt a run, you're in serious trouble.
Besides, I just like that style better anyway.
