Understanding NFL Offensive Rankings And Stats

By Ruthie Calderon


Fantasy football depends on the offensiveness and the defense of the actual team in the league. To score the highest points each week, month or season, you must understand how NFL offensive rankings affect your tally. This will enable you balance a team between its ability to attack and how that will be countered by their opponents.

The ultimate measure of the strength of any team is its ability to score. To rank high, the team, must learn to score more goals. The only factor that can dilute the ratings of a high scorer is a weak defense. When compared to another high scoring team, their goal difference will be used to separate the two. It therefore calls for a high scoring team that is also good at defending.

Yards Per Pay are used to indicate how much space each team claimed during the game. The team that took the largest portion ranks higher compared to one that had a lower Yard Per Minute rating. The number of wins is likely to be affected by points scored and the number of first downs. Struggling with first downs is likely to affect your winning record.

Do not be blinded by an impressive first down rating. The ratings do not determine possession and neither do they determine the number of victories. An example is where Cardinals started their season with 3-0 yet were ranked number twenty seven in 2012. This does not mean that they should be ignored. Combining them with Rush Attempts gives you a better indication of the quality of play.

During a bet or fantasy football, go for a team with a better Yard Per Rush rating. This signifies better quality of play. You are advised to be cautious especially when the league is still young. A poor run of form can be deceptive leading to huge losses. Teams have turned tables to post impressive results. It could be a seasonal defensive blunder.

Passing Attempts have proven over time to be crucial in determining the strength of winning and losing teams. An offensive team makes more attempts compared to a defensive team. The Passing Yard also signifies strength and potential. An offender gives you a higher chance of winning compared to a defensive team. A combination of both qualities is better at all times.

Time of Possession gives a better idea of the ability of a team when choosing between a winner and a loser. First downs and the rushing yards are used to determine the time of possession. When making a choice, consider that the opponents could be holding the ball better than your target team or the team they were playing against. This reduces its overall weight.

Turnover makes a team great or lowers its ranking significantly. Offensive opponents take advantage of the mistakes of the other team and convert them into scores. It takes a better strategy and talented players to become masters of turnovers. Penalties have also turned good teams into excellent teams. It a team can break your penalties, it will stop you from advancing. The secret is to convert all opportunities that come your way. A combination of defensive and offensive strengths makes a winning team.
