True! they are giving up 122.8 ypg and are ranked 25th in that category. However in 4 games they have given up 491 total yards which is 18th best in the league. Uhh! Of course that is because they have only played 4 games. Last week when nearly all the teams played 4 games they were ranked 29th in both categories.
The bye week skews the stats. Should do away with it. Maybe have all the teams take a week off mid season.
The point was by not playing they improved their on paper stat rankings. Uh! This does not necessarily translate to on field performance.
