How to Read These Rankings
Points allowed is the bottom line. Yards allowed shows how a defense gets there, and takeaways explain the gap when a unit gives up yards but not points. Sacks and takeaways swing more week to week than the per game numbers, so early in the season treat them as signals rather than verdicts.
