[Huskerbuck85]

So we suck?

 

[Driveway Jordan]

25th in total offense, but 79th in scoring. That says a lot right there.

 

[Baron Winnebago]

Offense: yardage stats pretty good, scoring stats lol bad

Defense: yardage stats ok, scoring stats very good.

Special teams:

 

[BIGSTICK67]

25th in total offense, but 79th in scoring. That says a lot right there.

And it's the same for Defense. 52nd in total defense and 26th in scoring. So the question is how can we be 99th in red zone defense?

Pretty weird, but agree that the offensive rankings are a bit more telling. I thought YPP (yards per play) was the big stat now-a-days.

I hate the scores/trips to red zone = red zone % stat. The more important metric is TDs/red zone trips, imo
