The Week That Was -- review of last week's NFL outcomes

NFL Weekly Recap

This is Tim's claim to fame of course, and with the Tim-a-roni back from a one year sabbatical/drinking binge, who knows what will transpire!

Tim will, among other things, dole out a recap of the prior week's games, complete with the exclusive TMW play by play stats and ratings and the always important "stats score" that can be compared to the real score of the game.

Have you watched a game and wondered if the Wrong Team Won? If the stats didn't show up in the final score? If cooking sherry can be drunk without the cooking part? Our bold adventurer Tim is here to answer all of these questions and more.

THE WEEK THAT WAS: Week Twelve

PSR: Play Success Rate - every play is graded as either a success or failure

Big: percentage of plays that went for big gains...10+ yards for a run, 20+ for a pass

Yds: adjusted yards per play, including penalties and excluding non-plays

EFR: Effectiveness rating. One number overall summary.

Stats Score: This is the projected score the TMW computer would have spit out if the stats for the game were the numbers coming in. This column lets us know who "should" have won.
