Multivariate Display
The hardest part of this assignment was to figure out what I was going to use for my display. Since I am into football and the Patriots destroyed the Jets last night i decided to do something about football. I remember during the game an announcer bringing up something about red zone converstion percentages. The Patriots are number 3 in the league in scoring when they make it to the red zone. Since this had to be a multivariate display I decided to compare the AFC east conference red zone statistics. What makes this multivariate is that I compared 4 different teams, and within the 4 teams i compared their stats within the last 3 weeks, the last week, 2010, 2009, playing at home and away. I think this tells a pretty good story. Out of the 4 teams in the AFC East it is clear that the Patriots convert the most red zone chances, and are therefore the best team in the AFC East (and in the NFL). Multivariate display allow you to condense several varibales that can be shown in several graphs, into one multivariate graph.
