When Chow was at USC he used the pass to set up the run and all of pro/collete football watched and learned.

According to the statistics laid out in the article, passing results in about 3% interceptions, and running consists of approximately 3% fumbles. So the risks are about the same. However, passing nets an average of 6.5 yards to running's 4 yards.
Based on this it would seem that football would evolve into more of a passing game. And history evidences this in that 40 years ago it was 58% running to the current 46%.
Will this average continue to favor the passing game over time? I would guess yes. Running takes more skill from blockers and runners versus the passing game which can often amount to throw-and-catch. Moreover, if one can average 6.5 yards per play compared to 4 yards it would seem to be a no-brainer. However, there are many other variables that contribute to the decision-making i.e. time of game, score, superior running to passing attack, etc.

FELLAS, haven't seen this in any of the L.A. papers, but here's an interesting piece that ran on the Florida Times-Union website (http://news.jacksonville.com/pieceofdiroc/2008/09/07/after-the-storm/). It refers to Florida's defeat of Miami Saturday night:
RB Emmanuel Moody did not play because of a coach’s decision. He suffered an ankle injury last week, but Urban Meyer said Moody is not injured. He also said Saturday night that he must get Moody more work in the game plan. There are rumblings that Moody’s attitude isn’t the greatest and that he’s not exactly happy about sharing carries with Jeff Demps, Chris Rainey, Kestahn Moore and Brandon James. If that’s the case, then he has no one to blame but himself. UF doesn’t have a feature back and never will under Meyer, and he should have known that when he was trying to decide where he was going to end up after leaving Southern California
