Now that the Skins are showing that they can excel passing the ball, I'm hoping that it will help open the run game. Our backs aren't too shabby either.

I agree. Teams do have to respect the passing attack of the Colts first, because they are a pass first oriented team. However, my point to SF69 is simply, that being one deminisional will only take you so far. If we're talking about having a SB contender, you have to have a team that can pass and run effectively and balanced. Even if a team passes heavily in the first half, and it opens the running game in the second half, you still have to have both aspects working for your offense in order to be most successful.
