John Hoke By The Numbers

You are what your record says you are and you are good or bad at what the statistics say you're good or bad at. Like I did for a few coaches we've looked at or hired in the past, I put together a spreadsheet of their rankings for various statistics.

So I did the spreadsheet for Hoke. Below is the data from 1999-2014
Keep in mind though, he wasn't a DC the whole time.

* In 2006 the NFL changed how the calculated Passes Defended

** Incomplete data from 1999 season on rankings, but it's what I found using the same link for the others.
