COLLECTIVE TEAM STATS

• 25th in NFL in Avg Pass Yards Per Game (210.8)
• 12th in NFL in Points Per Game (26)
• 13th in NFL in Points Against (22.8)

My thoughts :

* Cam is quietly having an excellent start to the season with career high completion rate and 10 total TDs already

* We are having a great year with turnover differential and special teams 

* Defense has been disappointing minus the turnovers

* Theres a lack of explosive plays on offense but the stats are very evenly distributed

A defensive back is 2nd on the team in tackles, and DBs are 3 of the top 5. The highest D lineman is 6th. This isn't ideal.

How TF does Funch have more catches than targets? lol

[Shocker]

We are + 5 in turnover margin.  Good sign.  Also, top 5 in TOP as well.  Of course first in rushing. Thanks for the post Hoenheim, great stuff.

The biggest concern for me is how bad our red zone defense is. I need stats on this because I think we are the worst in the league at giving up touchdowns in the red zone.

During the game yesterday they showed a graphic where teams were 7/7 in scoring TD's against our D in red zone situations this year.  I don't think it gets much worse than that.

I saw yesterday that teams are 100% against us in the red zone. ouch #smh. So if we arent last we are 31st, dont see how anyone could be worse.

lol I thought this too... Maybe if we could start just scoring TD's for other teams in their redzone, we'd sink to that #32 spot.

It probably has to do with TDs vs. FGs in that 100%.

One cool thing is we keep scoring more points every game so far 

Game 1 : 16 points , Game 2 : 24 points, Game 3 : 31 points , Game 4: 33 points

TD coming back plus the defense usually picking up in Nov fares well for us. Pep is working his way back to %100. They couldn't run on us thanks to Short and Poe. They ran max protect all game. Their strategy was to exploit the Panther secondary. It almost worked.
