I am Scared

I thought The Golden Calf of Bristol was 2 for 8 for 69 Yards. Which scares me because how can we throw for 212 yards and lose and Denver throw 2 complete passes all day and win. The Golden Calf of Bristol is averaging 10 completions a game, and 6 completions a game when they win. Is our team that bad?

One day people will figure out why the best offenses are ranked by efficiency not yards or attempts. The Golden Calf of Bristol was the most efficient QB in the NFL today 2 completed passes = win. ;)

But to answer your question. Yes we really are that bad. Offenses are best ranked by total scoring efficiency and we are ranked 25th: http://www.teamrankings.com/nfl/stat/yards-per-point

One of the worst offenses in the NFL. We get a lot of yards but we don't score enough points. Our defense is now ranked 20th, so it's now officially quite a bit better than our offense.

An average offense travels 14.2 yards to get 1 point. 100 yards/ 7 points

We have to travel almost 19 yards for the same point, and this doesn't even count turnovers. So when you factor that in, we're no better than a team like Indianapolis. Deceiving when you watch them on the field, but very true, and very real. They are incredibly inefficient.

Think of it as an average offense plays on a 100 yard long football field.

But then when our offense gets on, their field is 133 yards long on each drive. So the extra yards we get means nothing to make us better. We need them just to be average at scoring points.

So if a game has 4 scoring TD drives from each team, our offense needs an additional(133) yards to keep up with just an average offense and also score 4 touchdowns.

A very efficient offense like Green Bay or San Francisco they only travel 12 yards for the same point.

So their field is usually only 84 yards long. Imagine what happens then when we face one of these guys.
