We're pretty much middle of the road (being polite here), except for KO returns (1st), Red Zone Offense (3rd)--when offense can even get in the red zone, TO Margin at 8th (thank goodness), and rushing D is acceptable at 25, but the passing yards allowed is absolutely abysmal at 107 and not acceptable, as is our 3rd down offensive conversions at 96 and 3rd down defensive conversions allowed at 73rd (no secret here). The time of possession is just a joke at 88th but that has a direct relationship to our awful 3rd down conversion pct. What's somewhat surprising is our punt returns rating is at a putrid 106 and the Barnett's net punting is at 67th. 1st downs allowed (D) and 1st down converted (o) is just not very good either and certainly not acceptable.
I guess these halfway stats would be acceptable if our strength of schedule was in the top 10, but I don't think that's the case/don't really know.
For a 5-1 team these stats look average at best, but I guess if we're d*&n lucky to beat an awful Whorns team by less that a TD, it's ok to whistle all the way to the bank and celebrate by eating Fletcher's corn dogs.
