The Patriots set the passing trend back in the early 2000's and won 3 Super Bowls.
The Ravens won the Super Bowl last year with Joe Flacco throwing for 22 TD's and less than 4,000 yards.
The past 13 Super Bowl champions:
2001 - Baltimore (run)
2002 - Pats (pass)
2003 - Bucs (run)
2004 - Pats (pass)
2005 - Pats (pass)
2006 - Steelers (run)
2007 - Colts (pass)
2008 - Giants (run)
2009 - Steelers (run)
2010 - Saints (pass)
2011 - Packers (pass)
2012 - Giants (run)
2013 - Baltimore (run)
7 Super Bowl Championships for the "running," teams vs. 6 rings for, "passing," teams generally speaking.
Pretty even, but the last six years show a, "new," trend.
