This season, I'll be working with Jim Seki from Pro Football Focus to bring Field Gulls readers a few "signature stats" for the Seahawks and their opponents each week. I'm a big fan of PFF's Signature Stats -- elusiveness rating, pass rush productivity, accuracy percentage, time in pocket for quarterbacks, yards per pass route run, and a few others in particular are objective stats that really help to paint a picture of a player's productivity or performance -- so I'm looking forward to this little partnership.
Let's take a look at this week's numbers. Seki's notes are in italics, and mine follow.
