For those curious, this comment shows the 2023-only rankings. They’re based only on 2023 games. They’re less accurate for predicting future game outcomes, so I feel they’re less meaningful, but people wanted to see them so here they are.

you could be right, but i’m hoping McD’s defense somehow does better scheme-wise in the playoffs than Frazier’s… but injuries have likely doomed our late/playoff defense this year.
for offense on the other hand, they mentioned saving something for later in the season (josh running?) on the broadcast, which we clearly saw in weeks 1-7.
Ha yeah this just occurred to me. It’s so lame watching this strategy. You have to actually go for it once in a while or else the defense knows you’re just trying to bait them.
