Run-versus-pass ratio for 2008? (1 Viewer)

[Klimtology]

I happened upon this fact while doing some preliminary research for 2009.

Anyone know which are the 7 teams?

Or where to find that info?

Team stats at NFL.com seems like a reasonable place to start.

Right!

I like to look at FBG end of year stats. Previously I go to 1st week of playoffs and it provides the link to the 08 stats individual and team. That link no longer works. When you use stats link, it references the 07 stats. Can this be corrected? Or is there a direct link to end of year stats for 08?

I think most of us probably could have guessed the first six probably; maybe not in the exact order, but there aren't too many surprises there, IMO.

For individual stats, go to "players", pick a player and go to "career stats". To the right is the "rank" column, click on the year you want. That brings up the positional fantasy rankings for that player's position. At the top of the screen are links to the positional rankings of all the skill positions back to 1990.

No surprise, almost all of the teams over 50% were pretty decent.

38.7% Indianapolis38.5% New Orleans38.4% Denver35.1% Arizona

but then the bottom 4 were alright too. At least 2/4 were.Not sure what to make of it if anything, just thought it interesting.

Only 5 teams did in 2007 and 6 in 2006. It's the way the league has been for a little while now.

Good reason why Mangini got fired right here....You have a real good OL, Two real good complimentary backs, a QB that just came off the street and had to learn on the fly, plus a schedule VS some of the worst run defenses in football....

This year the Jets will be way up on that list to where they should be.

Since it's hard to see some patterns simply by eyeballing the data andI'm really bored at work, I thought I would play with the data a little and test the old axiom that better defenses are correlated with more rushing calls on offense. I used the Rushing Ratio and went with Defensive Pts. Allowed Per game as my measure for the team defense variable Here are the two data sets:Rush Ratio57.8% Baltimore56.3% Atlanta54.9% Carolina53.5% Minnesota52.9% Tennessee52.2% Oakland50.6% NY Giants49.0% New England48.4% Washington47.8% Buffalo47.7% Miami47.6% Pittsburgh46.8% San Diego46.8% Seattle45.6% Cleveland45.1% Chicago45.0% Cincinnati44.7% Green Bay44.5% Tampa Bay44.5% St. Louis44.4% NY Jets44.2% Jacksonville43.8% San Francisco43.8% Houston42.3% Dallas41.3% Philadelphia41.2% Kansas City40.9% Detroit38.7% Indianapolis38.5% New Orleans38.4% Denver35.1% ArizonaTeamPts/GPittsburgh Steelers 13.9Tennessee Titans 14.6Baltimore Ravens 15.2Philadelphia Eagles 18.1New York Giants 18.4Washington Redskins 18.5Indianapolis Colts 18.6New England Patriots 19.3Miami Dolphins 19.8Tampa Bay Buccaneers 20.2Atlanta Falcons 20.3Carolina Panthers 20.6Minnesota Vikings 20.8Buffalo Bills 21.4San Diego Chargers 21.7Chicago Bears 21.9Cleveland Browns 21.9New York Jets 22.2Cincinnati Bengals 22.8Dallas Cowboys 22.8Jacksonville Jaguars 22.9Green Bay Packers 23.8San Francisco 49ers 23.8Oakland Raiders 24.2Seattle Seahawks 24.5New Orleans Saints 24.6Houston Texans 24.6Arizona Cardinals 26.6Kansas City Chiefs 27.5Denver Broncos 28St. Louis Rams 29.1Detroit Lions 32.3Here's the correlation I ran on SPSS: Correlations DefPtsG RushRatioDefPtsG Pearson Correlation 1.000 -.558** Sig.

I'm skeptical whether that was all Mangini's decision or not, sure he had some say but I've always doubted whether he wanted Favre or not, if I had to guess I'd say no. I think he wanted a ball control offense with Pennington running the show, but Tannenbaum went on a power play forcing Favre on him, telling him to win with him, and that Favre will be the focal point of the offense, meaning 'throw more.'We'll never know for sure, just my thoughts.

 

[MAC_32]

I think Atlanta's falls closer to if not below 50

I'm curious what New England's was in 2007. Furthermore, I wonder what it was in the first 2 and 3 quarters of those game.

I'm surprised Seattle's was that high, sure doesn't make my already bad feeling about their running game any better.

I think all of the Fins, Jets, and Cowboys increase their ratios, possibly significantly.

Would this be too long to put in my sig?To answer that guy's question about '07 Pats --- we should have a 2007 Pats discussion sticky --- I won't go back and add all the numbers for you, but I'll copy/paste this from another thread:

2007

week1 (NE 38 NYJ 14) - rushes 37 passes 28

week2 (NE 38 NYJ 14) - ra 32 pa 31

week3 (NE 38 Buf 07) - ra 38 pa 29

I think right about here is where we lost Maroney.

week4 (NE 34 Cin 13) - ra 34 pa 32

week5 (NE 34 Cle 17) - ra 32 pa 38

week6 is where we lose Morris for the season.

Our RB at this point is Kyle Eckel, with FB Heath Evans getting some carries.

Or...there might be a lurking variable that we haven't accounted for! Sorry, this stat teacher couldn't resist.

Or because we're only looking at 1 season it could be complete coincidence when other seasons are included.
