Here is the pass strategery for this week. If you have any questions at all about any of these numbers throw them in the comments and I’ll give you some kind of answer.

I always like to differentiate between #1 and #2 receivers and the guys at Football Outsiders do that in this chart. I’ve put it here to make it sortable. You can see how each team ranks against #1 WR, #2 WR, non #1/2 WR, and Tight Ends according to DVOA: Defense-adjusted Value Over Average and it also gives the yardage given up to each.

1st Chart’s Key:
Each number is the ranking that the teams have in that particular statistic over the last 5 weeks. For example, Green Bay has given up the least amount of passing yards per game so they have a “1″ under the “Yds/Gm” column. The ranking on the left coincides with the average on the right. The higher the number the worse their pass defense stats are.
