Shawn Slocum, please pick up the white courtesy phone, retire and please let Fritz take over. Offense and Defense, numbers wise, looking good. http://footballoutsiders.com/dvoa-ra...0-dvoa-ratings
Lions are 21st (26/19/7=Off/Def/ST), Bears are 24th (20/6/2) and Minnesota is 26th (25/21/24).

These are the Football Outsiders team efficiency ratings through ten weeks of 2010, measured by our proprietary Defense-adjusted Value Over Average (DVOA) system that breaks down every single play and compares a team's performance to the league average based on situation in order to determine value over average. (Explained further here.)
OFFENSE and DEFENSE DVOA are adjusted to consider all fumbles, kept or lost, as equal value. SPECIAL TEAMS DVOA is adjusted for type of stadium (warm, cold, dome, Denver) and week of season. WEIGHTED DVOA represents an attempt to figure out how a team is playing right now, as opposed to over the season as a whole, by making recent games more important than earlier games. As always, positive numbers represent more points so DEFENSE is better when it is NEGATIVE.
