(updated)

Where are we ranked today?


As of Week 7, we are currently ranked 11th in yards per attempt (7.1), 12th in completion percentage (62.9), and 14th in passer rating (89.2)

Other relevant stats --

ATT: Passing Attempts = 229 (tied with CLE for 16th place)
COMP: Completions = 144 (16th)
YDS: Net Passing Yards = 1490 (14th)
YDS/G: Net passing yards per game = 248 (18th)

Kind of pointless to talk about rankings after two weeks. You need to close out some tabs, my friend. What are you looking for on Craigslist? A casual encounter or some patio chairs?
 
93.6 passer rating and 72.1 completion percentage against the secondary is not that good but Seattle is just as bad. We are 2-0 and can and should improve as the season unfolds.
 
Not sure what to make of this: CHI is #4 but has allowed 7 TDs to our 4. We lead in sacks and tied for 1st in INTs. Guess it depends on how you sort it.

Taking those stats literally means that Buffalo is the second worst pass defense in the league. We all know that isn't the case. They just had the misfortune of going up against Tom Brady.
 
I'd look at passer rating, TDs, INTs before total yards allowed. We often are soft between the 30s and tight when in scoring range, with excellent situational football

Hate to say it but the Jets aren't looking too shabby.
 
Lets see how stats look halfway thru the season....

Too small a sample ATM....
 
@Tony2046 Thanks for contributing to the thread. Can you tell me how I can customize those charts to specifically highlight the Pats, and copy and post them?

Yeah, but it's nice to see how other teams are starting off the season, and whether the Pats will trend upwards or downwards week by week.

Better than the Bills on Defense but not nearly as good on offense. IMO QB is not mobile. Should be a tough win but a win nevertheless.

What I do is copy and paste from the chart on the website into an excel sheet. To paste into the forum I have to Print the excel file as a PDF file and save it. Then I use the "take a snapshot" tool under Edit in the Adobe file then paste it to the Forum.
 
Passer Rating: I do not put as much value on QBR rating as some but just in case you wanted to know where Prince Luck (The Next Super Bowl MVP) ranked compared to the rest of the league....here you go.

Note: You have to scroll down for a while.

Sorry Tony but you must have the chart upside down, Luck is this year's MVP.
 
No disrespect at all to the OP, but stats are for bums. I like looking at Brady's amazing numbers and all that, but stats are so overblown. What does the product look like on the field? It looks pretty good to me, especially considering it's only week 2 and a lot of those stats came after NE took their foot off the gas.
