One of my earliest posts emphasizes that this quotient is NOT a power ranking by any stretch of the imagination, and there are a number of reasons why. Everybody has one developing in their head, but short of being able to break down film and analyze the entire play of the league based on multiple angles This algorithm helps give me a unique angle to do just some of that analysis along with film breakdown, injury status, and performance analysis. In the end, my own hunch about who is what in a power rankings type of setup (like a chess ladder) at any given point in time from week to week---is just that, a hunch!
...With that in mind, we, hopefully, will attempt to run an analysis of the first quarter---the September football season results and try to get a handle on the constant changing landscape of the NFL from week to week. The quotient only adds one more element or Angle--if you will--to view that landscape and---most of all---try to filter out the loud noise of the media and public perception, who are quick to write off certain teams...and "crown" others (a la Denny Green) based soley on Records, Points Scored, and those all to familiar Offensive and Defensive Rankings which are gleaned solely from Yardage results.
