How this is measured

Stats are ESPN's season numbers, raw per game or per play and not adjusted for opponents; the better value in each row is in bold, and #n is the club's rank of 32. The win probability is our pregame model from the two power ratings with this week's home-field edge (none at a neutral site), assuming both clubs start their usual quarterback.
