SEASON NOTES
American Heritage's ground game looks better on paper, but one afternoon is doing a lot of the work. American Heritage averaged 4.4 yards per carry (866 yards on 195 rushes) on the season, #416 in section, but that number is boosted by a 239-yard game on 30 rushes against TNCA on 10/16. In all other games, American Heritage is at 3.8 yards per carry (627 yards on 165 rushes), a figure that would rank #466 in section. Context matters here: TNCA's run defense ranks among the weakest in section (7.6 yards per carry, #471 of 560), so that game says more about the opponent than about the unit itself.
The biggest shift in American Heritage's season has come in its ball security. The Patriots committed 2.8 giveaways per game over their first 5 games (2-3), #529 in section in that timeframe. Over the stretch of 4 games that followed (4-0), American Heritage has committed 0.2 giveaways per game, a 91% drop, #21 in section in that window. The schedule deserves some of the credit: American Heritage's last 4 opponents have averaged 1.4 per game, a #290 defense in section on the season, against 1.5 per game, #217 for the first 5. Measured against those opponents' norms (1.4 per game), American Heritage turned it over 82% less than those defenses usually force. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #113 in section, well below the first 5 (#10), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, the Patriots rank #385 in section in giveaways.
American Heritage's offense has come a long way since the season's early weeks. American Heritage averaged 20.0 points per game over its first 5 games (2-3), #321 in section during that time. Over the stretch of 4 games that followed (4-0), the Patriots have averaged 36.8 points per game, an 84% rise, #97 in section through those games. The schedule deserves some of the credit: American Heritage's last 4 opponents have averaged 25.5 points per game, a #340 scoring defense in section on the season, against 11.8 points per game, #53 for the first 5. Measured against those opponents' norms (25.5 points per game), American Heritage scored 44% more than those defenses usually allow. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #113 in section, well below the first 5 (#10), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, American Heritage ranks #206 in section in scoring.
The Patriots averaged 6.1 yards per pass attempt (1,021 yards on 168 attempts) over their first 5 games (2-3), #389 in section through that stretch. Few teams started slower in this department, and few have turned it around as sharply since. Over the stretch of 4 games that followed (4-0), American Heritage has averaged 8.9 yards per pass attempt (844 yards on 95 attempts), a 46% rise, #181 in section over that stretch. The schedule deserves some of the credit: American Heritage's last 4 opponents have averaged 8.7 yards per attempt, a #363 pass defense in section on the season, against 5.4 yards per attempt, #33 for the first 5. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #113 in section, well below the first 5 (#10), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, the Patriots rank #327 in section in passing.
Something changed for American Heritage's offense after the first 5 games of the season. American Heritage averaged 5.0 yards per play (1,303 yards on 260 snaps) over its first 5 games (2-3), #424 in section within that period. Over the stretch of 4 games that followed (4-0), the Patriots have averaged 7.2 yards per play (1,428 yards on 198 snaps), a 44% rise, #226 in section across those games. The schedule deserves some of the credit: American Heritage's last 4 opponents have averaged 7.3 yards per play, a #354 defense in section on the season, against 4.7 yards per play, #46 for the first 5. The level of competition matters too: in ScorePirate's SP Strength Index, the last 4 opponents average a rating that would rank #113 in section, well below the first 5 (#10), so the recent production comes against lower-level teams overall. On the season, American Heritage ranks #357 in section in yards per play.

PPG/OPP PPG use every played game on file. YPG/PLAYS-PER-GAME columns only ever come from games with a full box score on file, which can be a smaller sample than GP -- see the coverage note below when that's the case for this team.
Averages use only games with that number on file (sacks/INT 6/9, sacks allowed 5/9 games). SACKS ALW comes from the opponent's box score; TO FORCED is takeaways; TO MAR is takeaways minus giveaways, and its bottom cell is the season total. Dashes mean not on file.
