Title: Offence Up! Post by: Andrew-Neutral on May 11, 2005, 12:05:20 PM In Season 13, more points were scored than in any other season. Here are the points scored in each season;
1 - 4854 2 - 4764 3 - 4305 4 - 4347 5 - 3772 6 - 4913 7 - 4992 8 - 4571 9 - 4683 10 - 5010 11 - 4830 12 - 5048 13 - 5560 Week 9 of season 13 saw 460 scored - the most ever for a single week in the FWL. In contrast, week 9 of season 5 only saw 219 points scored. On average, each week 339 points are scored, or 37.6 per game. Title: Re: Offence Up! Post by: Paul-London on May 11, 2005, 12:08:19 PM Well this offseason we wont be changing anything so if anything defenses should improve and scoring will be down slightly, very interesting figures though, if anything perhaps scoring was up too much this year.
We'll just leave it next season so it'll probably go down to the levels of the last 2 seasons before. Title: Re: Offence Up! Post by: Marco_Frankfurt on May 12, 2005, 04:43:23 AM I know the defensive downgrades were necesarry but sometimes I wonder what
Bobby Phillips stats would have been if he would have played the same soft defenses that are now in the league. He had his 18 or so rushing TDs against DLines that were much more effective and his tons of yards against DBs with a speed advantage instead ofa speed disadvantage Title: Re: Offence Up! Post by: Paul-London on May 12, 2005, 05:15:15 AM Then again its like real life, if Dan Marino played in the league nowadays where the DB's cant make contact after 5 yards then who knows what records might be broken.
If Barry Sanders had a decent QB then he might have racked up more yards as the defenses wouldnt focus solely on him. If Bobby Phillips had played now perhaps Stoney Case would have thrown for 4000+ yards more often instead of Phillips running the ball so much etc. |
