How am I defining Success Rate? It's a metric that Bill C uses for his SP+ Rankings.

First Down - Get at least 50% of the necessary yards needed for a first down

Second Down - Get at least 70% of the necessary yards needed for a first down

Third/Fourth Down - Get 100% of the necessary yards needed for a first down

Essentially, it's a measure of how efficient an offense and how often they stay on the field.
