NFL Analytics Insights

What's coming

The first posts are on the way. Here is what this page will carry:

• The weekly Drive Report, every Tuesday of the season: the teams whose offensive and defensive drive efficiency moved most after the latest games, the biggest risers and fallers in our simulated power rankings, and what the drive data says about why.
• League-level research: original analysis on questions like how long quarterbacks really have to throw and when pressure arrives, each with its sample size, uncertainty and a methods note.
• How the model works: plain-language explanations of drive-based ratings and how the game and season simulations are built.

Until then, the numbers are live: see this week's power rankings, drive efficiency stats, projected standings and game predictions, or read how Advanced Football Stats works.
