Agreed.
But which stats are important can get kind of subjective, which is all I meant in my other post.
"Potential points per play," is a stat, and even if I'am not interested in that one, others think it's a big deal, for example.
I tend to look at the ones you've mentioned, as well as things like points given up per game, passing yards given up per attempt, rushing yards given up per play, etc.
