Simplified 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 score is a greater determinant above all other factors. High scoring teams always rank better compared to low scoring teams. A weak defense can only reduce the strength of a team when it is compared to another high scoring team. The two will be separated by goal difference. To stand a better chance, you should take the best scorer and the best defender.

Yard per play indicates the portion claimed by each team during play. Regular winners score higher on this end compared to losers. This is because the winners score more points, first down and eventual wins. Regular losers have fewer first downs and thus a lower score. This struggle with first downs and wins affects the ranking of a team.

A higher First Down does not always indicate wins or more possession. It should be noted that in 2012, the Cardinals were ranked position twenty seven but started with 3-0 first downs. They are however important in determining ranking and eventual strength of a team. They also combine with Rush Attempts to determine the position of a team.

When betting, consider the Yards Per Rush of your team of interest. This is a crucial indicator of the quality of play. This might however be misleading especially at the beginning of the season. Some teams have a poor run and are likely to be written off. Others have overturned the tables and recorded impressive performances. A poor run defense at a particular time does not mean that it is time to write-off the team.

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.

Turnovers will make an average team great and an excellent team out of a good one. It indicates the number of offenses and how these offenses are used to their advantage. This may reflect strategy and individual skills by the players. Penalties aid in ranking teams based on which team takes the most penalties and whether these penalties are broken by the opponents or not. The factors will assist you in determining the team that is likely to win you more cash when betting.
