Why do some coaches feel like you have to run the ball when there's 10 Man in the Box on the defence why don't we spread the field and run some plays and soften defense up then when we do throw the ball why do we only throw the ball with two receivers out why don't we send more receivers late late releases off the out of the backfield wheel route you know we could send more people than just 2but you need to spread the field

Maybe b/c those coaches go to practice everyday and know the strengths and most importantly the weaknesses of their team. Maybe the lineman aren't great at pass blocking. Maybe the qb isn't comfortable passing. Maybe those two receivers catch better than the others. I bet that if the coaches thought they could throw the ball downfield with success they would.
