Redzone Happy Hour Deep Dive
By: Longville
Good evening RedZone and welcome to another beautiful winter night. We are hitting the halfway mark of the season and so often we find ourselves hitting a lull and just going through the motions. Media has been coming in at a blistering pace due to the redo and new team selection. (Which I may add was very exciting and was cool to experience. Only complaint was a personal one at which no offers came in till the end of team selections for some coaches.) However, hearing about my thoughts and opinions are not fun and why we are here. I have gone through and compiled data from the league and converted the raw data into translatable data for all of us to look at.
Disclaimer: I have taken the average of passing, rushing, passing D, rushing D, wins, and team overall and converted them into a Z score. Simply put, a z-score (also called a standard score) gives you an idea of how far from the mean a data point is. But more technically it’s a measure of how many standard deviations below or above the population mean a raw score is. So all this data is set as the average of user stats and nothing more.
The first thing we will take a look at is the overall coverage of wins throughout the league. It was pretty interesting to take a look at the wins scatters throughout the league. There are is an average win total of 4.156 throughout the league as of right now. With that we can set the benchmark for wins as we see how teams compare below.
From the data we are able to decipher that rushing standings do not play a role into overall success of the organization. However, all successful teams (minus the falcons) show that good passing offense will help increase the wins of an organization. Below we can see the current standings of teams in perspective of both offensive and defensive standings.

Here we are able to see how based off the average of the league being factored into everything that win totals are not necessarily determined based off the overall statistics. Once again this is figured up a tad differently so other factors could change this outlook entirely. The part that is very interesting is seeing the standings of teams in overall “Power rankings” based on team overall being a factor as well.

To finish this introduction to a deeper dive of the teams within the league we can see that teams playing above their overall helps significantly impact the standings. The standings on the right side of the chart are the final standings with the overall factored in. Success of teams with lower overall helped move the score due to “difficulty” of winning due to the rating to where the high ratings did not get as much love compared to the average.
Keep an eye out for the next portion of the deep dive as we look into the impact league leaders have within the organization, and how much a good QB matters to success. Let me know if this made sense or if I just completely butchered this attempt as I am messing with new concepts here. If you have a suggestion or want something specific looked at please reach out and let me know. Thanks for reading!!
