After 11 games, #12 in offense, #11 in defense

[NoGain]

We're a fringe playoff team now, not good enough to be considered amongst the true SB contenders, and not bad enough for a top ten or better draft pick.

Sound familiar?

The line from " Money Ball " says it all..." If he's a good hitter ; why doesn't he hit good ? "

Great movie one of the best

Its not team rankings. Its individual players grades on average, is it not?
DVOA is 16 overall

Some of the current team rankings, (by totals), are skewed by 24 teams having played 11 games and 8 teams having played 12 games.

He has the face. Good looking girlfriend

When misinterpreted, stats are…

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. People just want to use "stats" to fit a narrative of some player they don't like. It's been that way for decades.

Sure didn't feel like a top 10 team, but PFF seems to think so? Biggest drop may be run defense? from #2 in the league after the Giants game to #18 now. Tackling has been consistently bad, Receiving trending downwards.

The all important SPECIAL TEAMS ranking looks spot on to me.

The Seahawks offense and defense have combined in committing 14 more penalties than their opponents and lost 184 more yards than gained from penalties. Thus throwing away some of the field position advantage Special Teams is providing. The offense and defense need to get their acts together. Only the Chicago Bears have turned in worse penalty numbers.

EDIT: One further note ..... only the Dallas Cowboys are committing penalties at a faster per play rate than the Seattle Seahawks.

That will change this week - the refs have their instructions. I'm pretty sure the Cowboys will have the lowest penalty rate for the season this Thursday.

If the Seahawks are playing well and somehow get the lead? Flags, they will be flying (except for all the uncalled penalties on Dallas' secondary).

" Numbers don't lie " they say ; but sometimes " they just don't add up " if you know what I mean .

I don’t know what’s up with the heartache

We have the same record as Indianapolis, Houston, and Denver!



Oh wait…
