Very interesting chart. I confess that I haven't seen one like that before. Very telling.
And regarding the Chargers being near the bottom defensively, one of their DBs had the most brain-dead, bone-headed play yesterday. There were two seconds left in the first half. The QB was just heaving the ball up with no chance of the Hail Mary coming anywhere near the end zone. There were three Chargers surrounding the WR. There were two possible reasonable outcomes. the WR doesn't catch the ball and the half is over. The WR catches the ball and is tackled and the half is over. But the defensive back just shoves the receiver! Very obvious, no trying for the ball, just blatantly shoves the receiver. 30-yard PI that puts the ball in field goal range and then, of course Miami kicks a field goal to end the half. Had to see it to believe it.
