    wow.. Buckle your belt back on MJ. Yeah catchy thread title.. I know.

    I'm just pointing out stat that appeared somewhat.. idk... interesting. I imagined that number would be less. Especially when taking into account yards stopped vs attempts..

    Slap me around and call me Sally.. yet don't be so quick to ask for the rope fella. :hang:

    Other than that.. good points mentioned in this thread... especially the 49 yard punt counted againts our r-def which I didn't take into account. I guess in some way if a defense dominates the run, offenses quit trying which might be the case in our stats.

    My point was that the yds/attempt should be looked at as the major stats which should be taken into consideration to judge the strength of a run stopping defense especially when taking into account greater attempts lead to wearing out of the d-line.
