Favorite Defensive Stats

[xerxes]

Figured I'd start to collect our favorite defensive stats from this year. Mine is about recovering from turnovers.

 

We've had 13 turnovers this year, and we've given up 13 points off of turnovers. That's the 2nd best in the league behind KC, which has given up 10 points off of 8 turnovers. 

 

It shows just how resilient this defense has been even when put in tough situations.

 

Oh and in the past two games we have given up 0 points in the 2nd half.

my favorite stat, is carolina is shutting teams down on 3rd down.  allowing only 33% to be converted.  39/115.  And have only allowed 1 4th down conversion.

And we're converting 3rd downs on offense!  Third downs used to KILL us.

Zero offensive TDs in the 1st quarter... Wasnt ATLs 1st half TD the 1st first half TD on us this year? Makes a win much easier when we get 60 minutes to  score & the opposition only gets 45, maybe even only 30...

I'm so happy that DG addressed the DT position. What a difference.

Not really a stat. But I cannot think of ONE player on the defensive side that does not make a play for this team.  DTs aside and when TD and Kuechly make a play you can thank the DTs.  

 

I caught a lot of flack before the season because I thought this defense was going to be awesome and incredible.  Fought over Kuechly being better than Willis RIGHT NOW!!  And he is,  I caught flack about or defensive backfield was going to be good with the additions to this team.

 

IMO we have probably 4 Pro Bowlers on the Defensive Side.   One from each level with an extra LB.

Opposition is averaging less that 2 TDs per game.  You should not lose any games when that happens.

If you do avg points per turnover we actually are better than the Chiefs.

Car: 1 pt per turnover

KC: 1.25 pts per turnover

isn't there a crazy stat about 0 td's in the 2nd half or something like that?

I was gonna say Mitchell seems like a long shot, and he still might be, but I looked at his stats this year and only Earl Thomas is ahead of him in picks at FS (3 to 4) and they have the same number of FF (2)

 

It'll be interesing to see if enough people recognize to vote for him

Plus he has a couple of sack not to mention he hits like a Mac Truck.

I love them all. I especially love the fact that our defense can take the league's best running attack and make them the 4th best running attack in 1 game.

Favorite D stat for me:

We are always Terrible late in the game and in close games!  Costly fumbles but D doesn't help either (see ATL last year Buffalo this year)

 

 

4th Quarter + 1 point Game

 

FOUR yards Total Offense in the 4th Quarter!!!!

The #Panthers held #Niners to FOUR total yards in the 4th quarter. That's the best defense in the sport.

on both sides of the ball

Star played great again yesterday, chasing down their ostrich QB
