Good eveneing fellow Phin Fans... just figured to generalize some stats and let you see where we either improved considerably or slightly in the last 8 games of the Season... At 0 and 7 we looked at these numbers... 26% Third Down Conversion... 9-23 (39%) on Red Zone... 9 Red Zone TDs... 15.3 Points per Game... 5.0 Yards per Play... After 0-7 (or 5-10)...A 5-3 record... 39% Third Down Conversion... 15-29 (52%) on Red Zone... 15 Red Zone TDs... 6, 20+ yards TDs... 23.6 Points per Game... 5.5 Yards per Play... and then we look at the 2009 Season... 49% TDC... 33-54 (61%) on Red Zone... 33 Red Zone TDs... 4, 20+ yards TDs... 21.3 Points per Game... 4.9 Yards per Play... just food for thought...
Well we have these numbers for you... 2009 Play-Offs Teams... Dallas- 41% TDC... 51% RZC... 22 Points per Game... 6.1 Yards per Play... Philly- 35% TDC... 49% RZC... 26 PPG... 5.9 YPP... Minny- 45% TDC... 62% RZC... 30 PPG... 5.7 YPP... GB- 47% TDC... 57% RZC... 30 PPG... 5.9 YPP... NO- 44% TDC... 61% RZC... 33 PPG... 6.2 YPP... Ariz- 36% TDC... 70% RZC... 24 PPG... 5.9 YPP... NE- 43% TDC... 54% RZC... 26 PPG... 5.8 YPP... Jets- 37% TDC... 51% RZC... 21 PPG... 5.1 YPP... Cinci- 40% TDC... 49% RZC... 19 PPG... 4.9 YPP... Balt- 43% TDC... 52% RZC... 24 PPG... 5.4 YPP... Indi- 48% TDC... 65% RZC... 25 PPG... 5.9 YPP... SD- 44% TDC... 55% RZC... 28 PPG... 5.9 YPP... Here is a Link to a Site with a lot of Team Stats (Offensse, Defense, Special Teams, etc.)... They have these numbers for the last 8 years... http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/team-stats/
Not surprising given a new OC and system during a lockout, 5 new starters on offense, an OL that had 3 new position starters including a rookie and Jake Long playing through an injury early on, and a #1 WR that couldn't catch a cold in the end zone and was being targeted probably over 50% in the end zone. I would feel more confident with the offense if the wins weren't against teams that rank 19, 20, 27, 27, 29 in PPG for defense.
