Maxman Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 The NY Jets have given up the fewest points in the NFL (236). That is pretty damn impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeC36 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Awesome stat indeed, but too bad a number of those were given up late in the 4th quarter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lupz27 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 I love all of the D stats but I am not buying elite super bowl caliber D until they actually win us a game late in the 4th quarter hopefully they start to in the playoffs if we dont blow it next week.

JETS11269 Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 It'd be pretty sad if that defense didn't make the playoffs. Jets got real lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irish Jet Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 The Dolphins have a negative point differential, lol. Ours must be pretty good. When we've won it's often been by a big margin and when we've lost they've normally been last second heartbreakers. I know the Jags, even when they were in the prime position had a terrible point differential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Jet Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 ne, tn, buffalo 2 say hello.. ne 1 in particular Yup. Oh and when our offense actually does anything at all there's rarely any need for any last gasp stops. We have an elite defense, it sucks that we haven't been able to make better use of it.

JerryK Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 A perfect Defense and NO Offense will yield a score of 0-0. This is not a win. ...and certainly not a championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsis Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 A perfect Defense and NO Offense will yield a score of 0-0. This is not a win. ...and certainly not a championship. A perfect defense creates turnovers which lead to points. But, I do get your point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTM Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 It's a joke that I did not know that? well.. i was asking if you were kidding about not knowing.. it's on every standings listings i've ever seen.. some may make you do the math yourself, but it's always there.. I'd definitely say I'm surprised you didn't know that however.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyHector Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 That must be pretty good. Where do you get these? It's an advanced metric that was developed by Football Outsiders. You look at the standings and take the value in the 'PF' (Points For) column and subtract from that the number in the 'PA' (Points Against) column. Ground-breaking stuff, really. Some standings, such as those on NFL.com, have started including this calculation under the heading "Net Pts". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
