YPA Power Rankings

Dave's very pithy and interesting Power Rankings will follow later today. In the meantime, here's how yards per passing attempt (YPA) differential -- the spread between offensive and defensive proficiency -- ranks the teams heading into Week 7. YPA was pioneered by stat guru Bud Goode, who determined in the mid-1970s that it was by far the most important stat in predicting who wins and who loses each week.
