Crunching numbers on the Patriots - New England Patriots Blog - ESPN Boston
A really interesting look at several different things. There's a comparison of passes to Moss vs. the rest of the offense in different formations (including Brady's passer rating), the increase of the use of tight ends vs. more than 2 receiver sets, as well as how the run defense is doing (runs to the right are averaging 7.67 yards compared to only 3.06 up the middle). Also some numbers on Brady comparing blitzes to standard pressure. Some really good stuff here.
Three areas in which the New England Patriots are reforming their offense - ESPN Boston
Another stat-packed article about how the 2010 offense has changed, and should continue to do so without Moss.
In summary, we're spreading the ball around more (Hernandez and Tate are getting way more targets this year than Edelman and Faulk in 2009), the tight ends are being targeted way more (almost twice as often as the last few seasons), and how the deep pass hasn't been connecting as often this year (only 12 pass attempts over 20 yards, with only 3 completions).
