5 NFL Red Zone Trends to Monitor for Week 10

Through eight weeks of action, NFL teams have produced 651 offensive touchdowns. Of those, 417 have come through the air with the other 234 on the ground, which equates to a 64.1% share for the pass.

In the red zone, it is closer to even, as teams have accounted for 270 passing (34 in Week 8) and 206 rushing scores (20 this week) inside the 20-yard line. As we've continued to see, red zone passing touchdowns and overall scores are down from a year ago, but rushing touchdowns have an increased by 16 to this point. Those same scores account for 1,080 fantasy points from passers, 1,236 from rushers, and 1,620 for those on the receiving end of red zone touchdown passes.
