The order comes from points added per play and how often plays work, each compared with what that opponent usually does. Garbage time is left out. The yards and turnover columns are plain totals, not adjusted for opponent, and they count every play. It is early in the season, so one lopsided game still moves a team a long way. Pick any team to open its season page.
