2012 NFL Week 10 Stats – Adjusted Net Yards Per Passing Attempt Differential

Week 10 of the 2012 season is history and below are the ANYPPAD (Adjusted Net Yards Per Passing Attempt Differential) stats year to date. This stat is great for tracking teams success over the season and is a great measuring stick to show which teams might be headed for the post season and which teams might be staying at home as it is based around the passing offense and passing defense of all 32 teams.

If you want to get a better understanding of the stat, read here and here is the final regular season ANYPPAD stats from last year.

The Pittsburgh Steelers climbed up one spot this week despite their differential staying at 1.60. Of course the big thing right now moving forward with both the Steelers and the Chicago Bears is the injuries to Ben Roethlisberger and Jay Cutler. Cutler will likely only miss one game while Roethlisberger is in jeopardy of missing several. Keep a close on the Steelers offensive ANY/A number moving forward with Byron Leftwich behind the wheel.

The Steelers of course face the Baltimore Ravens two times over the course of the next three weeks and the two teams are pretty similar when it comes to this stat. Roethlisberger being out is of course huge and the play of Leftwich will obviously play a huge role in the Sunday night game and possible the game in week 13 in addition.

Are the Indianapolis Colts for real with a negative differential number? The thing going forward for them right now is their schedule outside of the New England Patriots, who they play this coming week. They aren\’t going to run the table, but they do have a good shot at winning at least four more games to finish their season 10-6. They might end up being a playoff team with a negative differential number when all is said and done. Realistically, I think they finish 9-7 when the smoke clears.

The Cincinatti Bengals could be a team to watch right now in the AFC. They needed that win over the New York Giants this past Sunday and they realistically could win their next five games based on what the current ANYPPAD stats show us. This could really set up some crucial games against the Ravens and the Steelers in the final two weeks of the season.

The Denver Broncos face the San Diego Chargers this week. If you are a Steelers fan you want the Chargers to go ahead and get their sixth loss. The game is in Denver and in my opinion it would be a huge upset if the Chargers won.
