Football Outsiders: Patriots vs. Different Receivers Stats
It’s been well pounded into all of our heads that the Patriots pass defense ranks at or close to the bottom of the NFL in just about every passing category. My favorite rankings come from Football Outsiders who break down performance against each different receiver.
These stats aren’t going to make you feel any better:
- vs. #1 WR: 30th
- vs. #2 WR: 26th
- vs. Other WR: 5th (Hooray!)
- vs. TE: 26th
- vs. RB: 18th
Quick comparison to where the Pats finished in these rankings last year:
- vs. #1 WR: 23rd
- vs. #2 WR: 11th
- vs. Other WR: 5th
- vs. TE: 21st
- vs. RB: 30th
