Minnesota Vikings are the best combination: 4th in rushing yards allowed per game (85.7) and 1st in third-down rate allowed (22.7%). Clubs good at one tend to be good at the other (r = 0.48, oriented so positive means good goes with good).

Rushing yards allowed per game across, third-down rate allowed up. A lower-is-better axis is inverted so better stays up and right.

How these are measured

Season numbers from ESPN's team statistics, raw per game or per play — not adjusted for the opponents faced. Dashed lines mark the league median; the dashed diagonal is the least-squares line, and r under the chart says how tightly the two move together. Full definitions are on team stats.
