It's interesting to see how the offense has transformed since Ben's return:

Offense cl
early tilting toward pass – It should because running game is inconsistent.
Almost 50/50 balance: 4 games without Ben skews numbers.

Running the ball on 1st down almost 60% of the time with our personnel is a travesty.
