Man...awesome work and point well made. Might be one of the most damning pieces of evidence I've seen of this offense's recent ineptitude.
One of those stats/figures that really sums up exactly how we all feel. :(dolphin25 likes this. -
I want to do the same for the defense

Good work!
Only issue is that punt rate actually is not a good predictor of wins and losses. Here are the punt attempts per game stats: https://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/punt-attempts-per-game?date=2016-02-08
For example, in 2015 the correlation between number of wins and punt attempts per game is -0.196, meaning yes fewer punts per game means it's more likely you win more games, but the strength of the relationship is relatively low (strong correlation is closer to -1 or 1, while weak is closer to 0). -

Oh! OK I missed that. Then that's well known about this team. Look at TD's by quarter:

Even if those are just passing stats it's pretty clear we've started slow for last few years (again look at TD's, not rating).Finster likes this. -
My post shows a bad trend. Quick, inefficient offense and a defense that spends a bunch of time on field and allows points

Okay.....but we have a new coaching staff, an entirely new offense, and we just played on the road against two of the league's toughest team. I'm not sure what that has to do with the first two games last season.
And for your information folks, just because Punxsutawney Phil sees his shadow on Groundhog Day and predicts 6 more weeks of winter, it's not actually the beaver changing the cosmos and controlling the weather. It's what we call a coincidence. But this conversation is even more silly than Groundhog Day because very little is the same from one season to the next. New coach. Three different faces on the offensive line. A fully revamped defense. New running backs. So comparing the first two games of last season (where we went 1-1) has nothing to do with this year at all. -
Yes, combine the defense giving up long TD drives to start the game with the offense not getting any first downs, and its a recipe for disaster. Today reminded me a lot of Week 1 last season at Washington, with the difference being that Washington couldn't take full advantage.
