Washington was a heavy passing team last year (62.4% pass, 37.6% runs).
But then they had a bad defense, and were almost invariably behind at the half or in the 3rd quarter. (5 of their 8 wins are listed as Cousins comebacks.)
McVay has already said that he wants a balanced attack.
Having a defense should help that.
IF they are balanced it will be more like 56% pass, 44% run.
If they pass more than that IMO it's because they are playing catch-up.
....
Or I should add...they could also pass more than the 56/44 formula if the running game struggles.
