Latest insights
All insightsWeek 10 Drive Report: Buffalo Takes Control of the AFC East, and Minnesota Slides in the NFC North
Buffalo's 23-6 win in Minnesota and Green Bay's 45-27 win in New England reshaped two divisions at once. The Bills now win the AFC East in 88% of our simulated seasons, and the Vikings fell from 78% to 58% to make the playoffs. Plus the drive-efficiency movers and the playoff races that changed.
Week 9 Drive Report: Denver Makes the AFC West a Race, and the AFC North Thins Out
Denver beat Kansas City and cut the Chiefs' chance to win the AFC West from 64% to 44%. Pittsburgh's 27-6 win over Cleveland and Baltimore's 36-10 loss in Buffalo thinned the AFC North to two contenders. Plus the drive-efficiency movers and our best forecasting week so far.
Mobile Quarterbacks Don't Get Rushed Faster. They Hold the Ball Longer.
Offenses with scrambling quarterbacks get pressured more than their offensive lines deserve. We measured why on 5,625 tracked dropbacks from weeks 1 to 6 of the 2024 season, and rebuilt the pressure rating without the quarterback's legs.
How it works
MethodologyEvery drive, rated
Each offense and defense is rated on how its drives end (scores, stalls and turnovers), adjusted for opponents and game situation.
Games played out
Those ratings drive a drive-by-drive simulation of each game, run 2,000 times.
Rankings from the same model
Every team plays a league-average opponent; the power rankings sort teams by how often they win.

Player tracking
We're researching player tracking to measure what box scores can't: time to throw, pass-rush pressure and receiver separation. Here is one anonymized play from that pipeline.
See what else video can measure →- Time to throw
- 3.0 s
- Target separation
- 11.4 yd
- Routes run
- 5 (median 4.1 yd open)
- Nearest rusher at throw
- 4.5 yd
Sample output from our tracking pipeline on a single pass play, measured at 10 frames per second. Positions are smoothed for display; teams and players are not identified. Separation is the distance to the nearest defender when the ball is thrown.
