Saints ST Rankings/2016 Season
Special Teams rankings for 2016.
KO coverage: 27th with allowing 56 yds per game & 20th with 22.6 per return. Punt coverage: 11th with 8.2 yds allowed per return & 14th with 14.8 per game allowed. We gave up 78.6 "hidden yards" per game. KO returns: 31st with 16.5 per return & 31st with 28.9 yds per game. Punt returns: 9th with 9.6 per return & 22nd with 13.8 yds per game. We had 42.7 hidden yards per game. So...we were -35.9 yards per game in the Hidden Yardage department. Football Outsiders had us ranked 27th in ST. Tied for 12th best with 15 ST penalties & 15th best with 136 penalty yards. FG percentage: 12th with 87.5% FG (excluding blocks) & 98% EXP. However.... Blocked kicks: 29th with 5.9% of our kicks got blocked. No blocked punts. How many blocks of any kind did we get? I recollect ZERO, but I could be wrong on that (couldn't find the stats). Tied for last in Non-Offensive TDs. Oh, and all you Fantasy Football nuts: Our DEF/ST ranked 32nd via ESPN. May Greg McMahon accept the Wanker County High School Assistant Coaching job in 2017. Happy New Year! |
