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, 55%.
  • Each expected number is then fit to the season’s games: a game bears out about 98% of the difference the model predicts.
