The Pittsburgh Steelers offense is in dire need of several improvements coming out of the bye week, and today I wanted to provide some data context. First, Pittsburgh ranks dead last with a 36-percent success rate in the NFL per nflfastR, which it defines as the percentage of plays with an expected points added (EPA) > 0.
I wanted to dive deeper and see how Pittsburgh and the rest of the NFL has fared in personnel groupings. The majority of the league plays in 11 (1 running back, 1 tight end) and 12 (1 running back, 2 tight ends) the most.
