There's one consistent theme to teams that throw a lot.
It's not the talent they have, or the lack of talent that forces them to throw a lot.
They throw because they can. They have a QB who can get the ball downfield and isn't chickenshit to do so - and the coach doesn't have to gameplan around his deficiencies.
