Week three of the 2013 NFL season has now come and gone and below are the weekly TOX stats along with the year to date numbers.
This week, the teams that had a plus two or better TOX stat finished 8-2 (80%) and if you have been following this stat with me over the years, you know that is the expected number. The year to date record for the plus two teams is 24-5 (82.7%), so a little correction is expected to happen over the course of the next two weeks.
The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Oakland Raiders were the two teams to buck the plus two number this week. The Steelers 11 explosive plays against the Chicago Bears was not enough to offset their five turnovers, two of which were returned for touchdowns.
While it’s only a stat, the Steelers are tied with the Seattle Seahawks in allowing the fewest amount of explosive plays (6) so far this season. That doesn’t mean much when you consider they are minus 9 in the turnover differential stat. If the offense would stop turning the ball over, they just might win a game or two.
