Preseason Week #4 Results NFL 2011



The final scores in many of these games paint an ugly picture of this week's picks. The Boschian landscape came courtesy of a bad turnover ratio, though. Of the 9 games in which I did write-ups or analysis, we had a combined turnover ratio of -10, which is awful luck for that many games. Only one of the analyzed teams were out-gained by their opponent (JAX -- NE was also, but that was just a thrown in Wong teaser that I didn't handicap). ATL had almost twice as many offensive yards as BAL. DAL outgained MIA by 101 yards (missed 2 50 yard fgs, lost by 14), NO actually outgained TEN by 43 yards, and SD outgained SF by 50. The CLE/CHI Under, which lost by a point -- that game saw only a combined 479 yards of offense, so the yards per point ratio was way below normal in that game. I'm not going to harp on misfortune every time it happens, but extreme cases like this week one are worth taking a closer look at, lol.
