Re: Ravens V Redskins - Beltway Brawl or Maryland Massacre?
By the numbers:
Baltimore Offense:
Yards per game - 19th (343.2 ypg)
Points per game- 9th (25.5 ppg)
Redskins Offense:
Yards per game - 7th (383.7 ypg)
Points per game- 8th (26 ppg)
Baltimore Defense:
Yards per game allowed - 25th (372.2 ypg)
Points per game allowed - 8th (20.2 ppg)
Redskins Defense:
Yards per game allowed - 29th (390.5 ypg)
Points per game allowed - 23rd (25.1 ppg)
The two teams are pretty close to being even, but the one area that is huge between us and the Ravens is their points allowed per game. They are a stingy defense that really doesn't give up points easily. Which means we have to capitalize on the red zone trips. Moving the ball up and down the field isn't going to do jack shit for us. You don't win games with the most amount of yards, you win it by points. Stating the obvious but still.
