How Game Script Affects the Main Components of D/ST Fantasy Production
The more that a team is in negative game script, the more it will pass, which benefits the opposing defense from a fantasy perspective (Table 14). As discussed previously, the average NFL team passes two-thirds of the time while trailing, which is 35 percent more than they do when ahead. The majority of defensive fantasy production occurs on passing plays: sacks, sack-fumbles, sack-fumble touchdowns, interceptions, and pick-sixes. Interceptions occur nearly twice as much when a team is trailing compared to when it is leading, and teams also give up 50 percent more sacks when trailing than when ahead.
