I bolded some of the more interesting stats..

While transitioning to a more 'power' run game, it seems we've dropped a bit in running effectiveness. (perhaps due to lack of PT for backups..)

What's your grade on Beck's first year?

 

[iruletheskool]

obviously i didn't compare TOTAL stats as we played 2 more games last year than we have this year.. Rushing Yardage tho seems to be one we wouldn't have come close to..

 

[Brasky]

I'd like to see 3rd down conversions and T.O.P

 

[Brasky]

Probably keep in mind we faced some much tougher competition this season than last.

 

[iruletheskool]

updated OP..

7 less turnovers in 2 less games is good en sech

 

[iruletheskool]

we fumbled a ridiculous amount last year.

 

[iruletheskool]

for total turnovers, i had to add their INT+fumbles lost stats.. Not sure if completely accurate

 

[Brasky]

Martinez's gloves are responsible for that improvement.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Wait wait wait...................we only committed 10 penalties all of last season offensively?

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Or is that the amount of first downs we received due to opponent penalties?

 

[iruletheskool]

Has to be first downs received. We had 3x that many penalties against aTm

 

[chucksker]

i find it strange that in our new "up-tempo" offense we ran less plays this year:confused2:

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

i find it strange that in our new "up-tempo" offense we ran less plays this year:confused2:

That's because our defense couldn't get an offense off the field this year.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

But also chuck, as irule said, the 2010 season has 2 more games in those stats than does the current 2011 season.

I never understood why qb's wore gloves. It looks and seems stupid

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

I never understood why qb's wore gloves. It looks and seems stupid

For us it's because our QB is a RB.........and when he doesn't wear the gloves he leads the nation in fumbles.

[spdybeaver]

I like gloves....

 

[corn train]

They should wear them while driving for fuck sakes
