Winning stats

2010 in review

•  
  • I’m going to start with Turnovers, which the defense had the worst number in the table, dropping almost 30% from their historical average.  I’m guessing some of you would have expected this to be on the other side of the ball, with all the interceptions thrown in the middle of the season.  Truth is, the Colts defense really had a hard time forcing turnovers in 2010, making their job, as well as the offenses, that much more difficult.  The offense was also well below their average, and that three game stretch with 11 turnovers is clearly to blame.
  • While the defense improved greatly on Three and Outs, the Offense had problems getting that first First Down of a series, down almost 10%.  It put a struggling defense out on the field more than they probably should have been.
