The 2019 Baltimore Ravens had a historic rushing offense. In a pass-centric league, they seemed to zig while the rest of the league zagged. But what about the 2019 Ravens rushing offense allowed them to be so successful?

While there are several ways to analyze the success of a rushing offense, the “Series Success Rate” (SSR) is an important indicator. The SSR is defined as the percentage of series that results in a new set of downs or points. This allows us to measure how well an offense maintains possession and drives the ball downfield.
