Inside the numbers with Doug Farrar -- Seahawks at Dolphins

[Geforce]

I don't usually put much stock in Football Outsiders DYARs, DVOAs or POS numbers but they do make for some good reading.

Pennington currently ranks sixth in DYAR among quarterbacks, and he's working with some unheralded receivers. Last week, Greg Camarillo put up 111 yards on 11 receptions against a Wildcat-conscious Broncos defense. Two weeks ago, it was Ted Ginn, Jr., that former supposed bust, who gained 175 yards on 7 catches against the Bills. Camarillo and Ginn currently rank 54th and 67th in DYAR among receivers, but even Ginn's DYAR of -11 would lead the Seahawks.

waht is DYAR?

Defense-adjusted Yards Above Replacement. It's a measurement Football Outsiders uses to measure a player's total contribution of all plays in any given game.

 

[FORMER FIN1]

Something yards as receiver
something yards after reception
like yac or something, don't know. Where are the stat whores?

So you mean you usually don't like the numbers because they reflect our play, but since they say we're good now you like them?

Not quite.

It is an approximation (based on the player's stats and the league's standard, off-the-bench replacement player at his position) on how many yards that player has produced over what a replacement (bench) player would've, over a span of time (8 weeks so far).
