but the point the person was making toward you was the correct ranking, which was skewed for points due to our large number of turnovers. He was correct in identifying that the Bears defense was better, and officially they were, we gave up a mid range of yards per game, and most the time that would equate to mid range in points per game, we just broke that mold due to factors outside of the yards per game.AngryRaidersFan wrote Wed Aug 07, 2024 12:26 pm: I suppose so but I don't really give a rats ass how many yards a team gets on us.

I personally think they should take negative yards into account with things like interceptions. Ie. If a cb picks off a QB and returns it 50 yards for a pick 6. They should take those 50 yards off the QBs passing yards.AngryRaidersFan » Wed Aug 07, 2024 1:17 pm
Does the nfl really rank defenses according to yards per game over points per game?? Then why does everyone have our defense ranked as 9th last year then??Attyla wrote Wed Aug 07, 2024 12:44 pm:but the point the person was making toward you was the correct ranking, which was skewed for points due to our large number of turnovers.

That's dumb. Give me the defense that averages less points then the defense that averages less yards.Attyla wrote Wed Aug 07, 2024 1:30 pm:The standard the NFL uses to rank defenses is yards per game

I heard it a few times on various podcasts and I swear I read it a few places somewhere. I literally read we had the number 1 defense in the nfl last year after AP took over.Attyla wrote Wed Aug 07, 2024 1:36 pm:who did you hear that from?

Is there a list posted somewhere of all the remaining free agents?RI RAIDER wrote Wed Aug 07, 2024 11:05 am:On the Pat McAfee show, they put up a list of NFL free agents. It was an impressive list. They were giving a rundown of players. They said word out of Vegas was Gilmore was going to the Raiders. They also said many of the players will not be signed until after week #1 (contracts are not guaranteed). They also talked about Kid Zit's plantar injury. They were saying how it lingers and its no guarantee he will be playing week #1. I can confirm (as I'm sure many on the board) that it is a nagging injury that seems to always rear its head when you have it.
