There will not be a bye the numbers for week five (it is our bye week). Probably going to try and keep the commentary brief this week. I've got a final paper due on one of my classes today so I am swamped this week.
Offensively
Total YPG: 13th with 341.2
1st Downs per game: 8th with 21.2 (this number dropped by a large margin this week as we saw our offense really struggle)
3rd down percentage: 4th with 47 (was 52% last week)
Time of Possession: 4th with 32:38 (this surprisingly did not change a whole lot this week, despite our offensive struggles, it was 32:32 last week)
Total Points: 11th with 98
Passing
Yards per game: 23rd with 198.2 (this stat has essentially fallen off the map the last two games, really struggled hard via the air)
Interceptions thrown: 19th with 4 (we're tied with a lot of teams here, we obviously did not have any this week)
QB rating: 19th with 89.0 (this actually went up from 87 last week, still a poor number)
Passing 1st downs: 16th with 46
Percentage of passes for first downs: 14th with 36.5
Plays of 20+ yards: 9th with 14
Plays of 40+ yards: 22nd with 1
Sacks: 23rd with 13
QB Hits: 21st with 25 (an average of 6.5 per game, we had 100 QB hits total last year which averages 6.5 per game. The notion that our pass blocking is improved at least at this point appears to be slightly flawed. We also only had 11 sacks this time last year compared to 13 so far this year)
Touchdowns: 6 with 7
Rushing
Average yards per game: 3rd with 143.0
Rushing 1st Downs: 3rd with 30
Percentage of rushing plays for 1st: 8th with 23.1 %
Rush of 20 or more yards: 3rd with 4
40 or more yards: 4th with 1
Fumbles: 18th with 2
Touchdowns: 10th with 3
Defensively
Average Yards per game: 1 with 260.8
1st downs per game: 1st with 15
3rd down percentage: 2nd with 26%
Penalties: 17th most penalized with 27
Penalty yards: 11th most with 253
We have not caused any fumbles caused this year...
Passing
Average yards per game:10th with 210 YPG
TD allowed: 8 (we've also had more passing TD's scored on us, than we ourselves have scored)
Interceptions: 6th with 4
1st down percentage:6th with 31.3 (This is a bright spot. A low percentage of passes completed are completed for a first down)
Plays for 20 yards or more: 11th with 10
Plays for 40 or more: 4th with 1 (we also aren't giving up big plays. Basically, we're forcing teams to take a lot of short stuff, we are covering the deep ball well)
Sacks: 14th with 10 (hopefully this number starts going up after the bye and getting people back in the mix)
QB rating: 15th with 88.7
Rushing
Yards per game: 1st with 50.8 (seriously, who is next? We're killing dominate backs this year. The record for fewest since 1980 was Pittsburgh in 1982 with 762 considering we've only played powerhouse backs so far, we could actually beat this)
Touchdowns:1st with a big fat freaking goose egg.
The longest rush we've allowed this year is 21 yards.
Plays over 20 yards: 1st with 1
Plays over 40 yards: 1st with another goose egg.
1st downs...9...we've allowed freaking 9 rushing first downs lol. Obviously we're in 1st.
1st down percentage 1st with 10.7 percent
A little light this week I know, as always feel free to add anything I've missed or any interesting stats you've found on your own.
*edit* corrected passing defense statistic.
