Pecking order Targets Backfield Red zone Vacated

Neutral pass rate

54%

NFL Rank: 24th

How often this offense throws when the score is close and the clock isn't forcing it — the cleanest read on what the coach actually wants to do. Pass-first teams support more startable fantasy players than run-first ones.

Pace · sec/snap

31.4s

NFL Rank: 15th

Seconds between snaps in neutral game script. Fast teams fit more plays into the same 60 minutes, and every extra play is another chance at a touch for someone you rostered.

Points / game

22.4

NFL Rank: 16th

Offensive scoring rate. Touchdowns are the most valuable and least predictable thing a fantasy player can do, and they're far easier to hit on an offense that reaches the end zone every week.

RZ trips / game

3.29

NFL Rank: 17th

Drives per game that reach the opponent's 20. It's the closest thing to a touchdown-supply number: the more often an offense gets inside the 20, the more scores there are for its backs and receivers to split.

Pass rate 51%NFL Rank: 29thShare of all plays that were pass attempts, every situation included. Unlike the neutral rate above, this one carries game script with it — a team that trailed all year looks pass-happy here whether it wanted to be or not.PROE -6.4NFL Rank: 26thPass Rate Over Expected. Given the down, distance, field position, score and clock, a model says how often an average NFL team would throw; PROE is how far this offense sat above or below that. +4 means it threw four percentage points more than the situation called for — pass-happy by choice, not because it was losing. Negative means run-first by design.Plays / game 63.6NFL Rank: 10thTotal offensive snaps per game — the size of the pie every skill player on this roster is splitting.
