Red Zone Team Tendencies (yards)

Red Zone Team Tendencies. This article continues the depth of the RZ metrics. I cover the player level data by team. I note the RB vs. QB while combining the TE and WRs players together. Each table list:

Team
Position
Player Name
Red Zone Passing Yards (blue high to red low)
RZ Receiving Yards (blue high to red low)
RZ Rushing Yards (blue high to red low)
Total Yards in the RZ (blue high to red low)

RedZone Pass vs Rushing Ratios for QBs

Red Zone Team Tendencies. I list the QBs from passing only to those that rush in RZ more. The Green highlights the RZ ratios. Rivers is all passing as is Stafford etc.

Note the Key QBs that are rushers more in the RZ. For example, Watson, Dalton, Jackson, Murray, Tannehill, etc. A bonus for rushing QBs!

==================================================

QB RedZone Pass vs. Rushing Ratios Lowest to Higher

This table focuses on the QBs with the lowest P/R ratios. I present their RZ passing vs. Rushing to highlight their rushing levels (Key metrics).

For example, Allen at BUF was the highest RZ rusher even higher than Jackson. Surprise! Fitzpatrick came in 4th in QB RZ rushing as well, which was a surprise to me. Go to know in TD biased leagues or Superflex situations!

==================================================

QB RedZone Pass vs. Rushing By RZ Passing High to Low

What are the QBs that can bring it home in PPR leagues within the RZ?

The top QBs are Wilson>Jackson>Ryan>Winston>Watson>Fitzpatrick etc. Use to focus your QB pickings in 2020.

==================================================

Running Back RZ Receiving to Rushing Ratios High to Low

Which RBs are the RZ receiving specialist? Many of these RBs are surprises and can bring it home in DFS or TD only leagues.

I was surprised at Breida, Edmonds, Armstead, Cohen, and Lewis,

==================================================

Running Back RZ Rushing Players

Red Zone Team Tendencies. I sorted the RZ metrics by the pure rushers to see who they are within the RZ. Jones was number 1 in 2019!

He is followed by Henry, Gurley, Cook, Elliot, CMC, Ingram, and Gordon. Seems that Gurley and Ingram jump out as higher ADPs in 2020?

==================================================

Running Back RZ Receiving Players Highest to Lower

Red Zone Team Tendencies. I highlight the critical RZ pass catchers from 2019. A bonus for PPR leagues for sure! James White was number 1 in 2019 RB receiving! Surprisingly though, J Williams from GB was number 2 (Best ball target for me).

Duke Johnson was also a surprise for me, and I have him in best ball as well. There are some undervalued RBs here.

==================================================

Top WRs and TEs in RZ Receiving

Red Zone Team Tendencies. I suggest, as with the data tables below, scan for high ADP plays. The prominent players are well known and less valuable vs. surprises!

Fells jumps out at me and is the best ball TE3/4 type if needed. He can be a streamer during byes as well! Samuel, Rudolph, Beasley, Pascal, Bourne, etc. are also undervalued.
