Understanding NFL Offensive Rankings And Stats

<

By Ruthie Calderon


Wins during fantasy football and betting depend on how accurately you judge the actual league. NFL offensive rankings are an easy way of predicting whether a team is strong enough to win or not. An attacking team increases the chances of winning though their performance will be determined by the ability of their opponents to defend.

How teams rank depends on their score. Teams that score higher in a game will obviously rank higher than those that fail to score. However, their progress is likely to be hampered by a weak defense. There must be a good balance between scoring and conceding. Allowing your opponents to score means that you will lose points which affects your ranking.

Yards Per Pay are used to indicate how much space each team claimed during the game. The team that took the largest portion ranks higher compared to one that had a lower Yard Per Minute rating. The number of wins is likely to be affected by points scored and the number of first downs. Struggling with first downs is likely to affect your winning record.

Do not be blinded by an impressive first down rating. The ratings do not determine possession and neither do they determine the number of victories. An example is where Cardinals started their season with 3-0 yet were ranked number twenty seven in 2012. This does not mean that they should be ignored. Combining them with Rush Attempts gives you a better indication of the quality of play.

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 determine whether a team will win or loose. Attacking teams make more attempts and have a higher chance of winning. The attempts are therefore an indication of strength and potential. Defenders, however, slow down the advances of attacking players. It is therefore important to find a perfect balance.

Time of Possession is the total number of minutes a team held the ball. Winners have been known to remain with the ball longer than losers. This is an indication of strength and winning potential. If your opponent is a good defender, you are likely to hold the ball yet not score. In order to win, you need the best combination of both qualities. The offensive strategy can only be employed when you are ahead and time is running out.

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.
