And it’s about…the Jags? Have no fear, it’s heading our way next week!
Twenty percent of the yardage in an NFL season is gained on two percent of the plays.
OK, I fudged a little bit: It’s more like 18.7 percent of the offense on 2.3 percent of the plays.
But it’s still pretty staggering. The NFL is league of long bombs and big runs, of yardage gained in 30-yard chunks.
There were 31,874 official plays from scrimmage last year, resulting in 174,176 yards for 5.46 yards per play.
