NFL Advanced Stats

Box scores and highlights tell you what happened. NFL Advanced Stats explain why it happened — and what's likely to happen next. Our Advanced Stats hub features over 400 unique metrics, spanning team-level efficiency and player-level usage, so you can uncover the deeper trends driving wins, fantasy production, and betting edges.

Advanced stats reveal what traditional numbers often miss. They measure efficiency, tendencies, and context, not just totals. At the team level, metrics highlight passing and pressure efficiency with measures like Air Yards per Attempt, Average Time to Pressure, and Explosive Play Rate. They also evaluate situational performance through third-down and red-zone conversion rates, while pace and play-calling stats such as Seconds per Play or Pass Rate by Game Script show how teams operate under different conditions. In the trenches, measures like Stuff Rate, Power Success Rate, and Adjusted Sack Rate capture line play that shapes outcomes.

At the player level, advanced stats focus on usage and efficiency. Participation metrics like Route Participation, Snap Share, and Opportunity Share reveal how involved a player is in the offense. Efficiency markers such as Targets per Route Run, Target Share, and Touchdown Rate indicate how effective those opportunities become. Production-focused indicators like First Downs, Routes Run, or First Read Target Share help identify both consistent performers and breakout candidates. Together, these measures provide a fuller picture of performance and potential.

Advanced stats serve different audiences in unique ways. For coaches and front offices, they inform game planning and roster construction by quantifying efficiency, pace, and player usage. Fantasy players use them to spot breakout candidates early, leaning on metrics like Opportunity Share or Targets per Route Run to identify upside. Bettors rely on pace, conversion rates, and pressure metrics to uncover mismatches that oddsmakers may undervalue. Analysts and fans gain a deeper appreciation of the game by seeing the layers beneath surface stats like yards and touchdowns.

NFL Advanced Stats provide a complete performance lens. At the team level, they explain efficiency, play calling, and situational strengths. At the player level, they measure opportunity, usage, and the sustainability of production. By connecting the dots between surface stats and real outcomes, these 400+ advanced metrics offer one of the most detailed and predictive ways to understand football.
