Sample below of Minnesota’s Game by Game Stats as a subscriber to Phil Steele Plus on Philsteele.com.
I have broke down the offensive and defensive averages and in today’s blog I took all those averages (both offense and defense) and combined them to come up with the most impressive teams in the country compared to how they fared against their opponent. Here is a ranking of all 32 NFL teams and how they did. This list does take out Garbage yards that may occur during overtime and/or blowout wins/losses. You you may see a difference in rankings from the Game by Game Stats listed on the actual NFL Teams Pages. The team page game by game stats include garbage yards.
Here is the breakdown of Offensive and Defensive YPG vs Opponents Average through the Wild Card Round.
