When it comes to the running
game, teams that had less than 250 running fantasy points in the
previous year all show similar improvement. When we look at teams
that had more than 250 running fantasy points, we notice that those
that bring back the same coaching staff seem to have the most
success in the following year.
To summarize this article,
the one thing that you need to know is that teams that bring back
the same head coach and same offensive coordinator have an advantage
in two situations:
-They had less than 225 passing fantasy points in the previous year
-They had more than 250 running fantasy points in the previous year.
Last season, there were 15 teams that had less than 225 passing
fantasy points and if history holds true, the Falcons, Bears,
Vikings, Jaguars, Panthers, Redskins, Bills, Ravens, Titans and
Bengals should show more improvement than the Lions, Seahawks, Rams,
Raiders and Browns in the passing game. In terms of the running
game, teams like the Jets and Broncos who were amongst the best last
year could struggle this year with a new head coach. In conclusion,
at times there might be a lot of hype about new head coaches but
when it comes to fantasy football, you will want to be careful when
drafting players from those teams.
