, ,

Against his share of what his opponents usually allowed quarterbacks, Brock Purdy was 29.9 yards over at home and 45.6 yards over away in 2026, 4 games against 2. The plain averages are 266.5 and 238.5, a difference of 28.0. Expected was 43.7 yards higher at home than away. Both first-half games were at home.

2 games away is still too small a sample for the statistics to say much, but maybe you can find something if you squint.

Method

  • Expected is what the opponent allowed quarterbacks in its other 2026 games, plus 1.6 for the home team (half the league’s home edge for quarterbacks that season), nothing at a neutral site, scaled to his share of his team’s quarterbacks’ passing yards in his games, 100%.
  • Each expected number is then fit to the season’s games: a game bears out about 98% of the difference the model predicts.
  • The shuffle keeps the season’s shape: the games are cut in two where one date leaves the least variance, each game is read against its stretch, and the sides are shuffled only inside each stretch.
