Pick Two. 1 Point Per 5 Rushing. 1 Point For 10 Recieving.

What's the point of running the football instead of throwing the ball to a receiver?

There are a few things needed to ubderstand in order to understand my answer. In football you are supposed to get to the endzone. You have 4 downs to get 10 yards but the 4th down is usually a punt or feild goal so you really have 3 downs.Going for the 30 yards pass is great, but if you’re playing a team with a secondary like the Seattle Seahawks or the Arizona Cardinals, passing can be very risky and lead to numerous interceptions. The ideal play is a passing play because it gains the most yards but the completion percentage of a quarterback can show that for some teams only 60% of pass plays work.Run plays, however, are a totally different topic and are used to achieve a different goal. If you are playing a team with all-star defensive backs but with beginner line backers and linemen you can run all over them. If you are playing a team that is good all around, running more often can wear down their defense. Another reason to running the ball is for minor gains. There is no time limit so a team can run as often as they like as long as they reach the first down marker. While you do have a point when you say just go for the big yardage gains, the ball is more likely to be thrown incomplete or get picked off when thrown comparred to getting fumbled while running it. A good runningback knows that as long as he is getting 5–7 yards a carry, he is going his job and helping his team.Having the ability to run the ball, while is may not directly win games, can have a huge impact on the opposing team.In short, running the ball can be more phisically straining to an opposing team, create a “dual threat” (throwing and running), and can pick up more short yardage, more efficiently and more reliably.

What does 2 day shipping actually mean?

I will add to the excellent answers that UPS has a service called 2nd Day Air and 2nd Day Air A.M..2nd Day Air means that the package will be received at the consignee address at the latest by the end of the 2nd business day from the date it was shipped (received by UPS):Business locations by 5 pmResidential locations by the end of delivery dayThis is a guaranteed service.2nd Day Air A.M. means the package is guaranteed to arrive at the consignee address by 10:30 am on the 2nd business day after the package ships (received by UPS).Note: If the package is shipped (received by UPS) 2nd Day Air A.M. on a Thursday, the package would arrive before 10:30 am the following Monday (2nd Business Day).You can upgrade the service level of 2nd Day Air A.M. for it to arrive on the Saturday. Saturdays (with the exception of some holidays and weather events) have a 12 noon commit time in most areas rather than the 10:30 am commit time for regular weekdays (business days).
