4 Man vs 3 Man Front Stats

[BFraz]

Anyone have the defensive stats from last night that compare the success of the 4 vs 3 man front?

Why the eye roll on this guy- and BFraz we thought you did the work to tell us.

For a comparison of 3 and 4 man fronts to be worthwhile, they need to include down and distance at a minimum. 3 man fronts make sense on third and long, but no sense on the goalline. There is far more to understanding a defense than a simple "3 man bad" and "4 man good."

Their starting running back rushed for almost 10 ypc. The majority of that was vs a 3 man front. I'm amazed they only handed him the ball 16 times. 

In short, it is sometimes as simple as 3 man bad and 4 man good. The stats suggest it.

I wish I had them as I would definitely share them 👍🏼

I imagine someone on here is a stat wiz or has some kind of “connection”
