Corrected Strength of Schedule / sacks

Posted Oct. 31 at 04:25 PM

In yesterday’s mailbag, a reader asked about which teams would play the easiest schedules in terms of sacks – that is, which teams would tend to play other teams that allowed lots of sacks. I mangled the answer, posting the wrong numbers.

Below are the correct numbers, showing the average numbers of sacks that have been allowed by each team’s upcoming opponents over the next eight weeks (NFL weeks 9-16). The Dolphins, Cardinals and Colts will play teams that so far have tended to allow the most sacks. Detroit, Kansas City and Atlanta project to play teams that haven’t so far allowed many sacks.

Apologies for the error.
