SEASON PICTURE

Net Expected Points Added (EPA) measures a team's combined efficiency by subtracting defensive EPA allowed per play from offensive EPA per play. The AWS-powered Next Gen Stats expected points model evaluates how each play changes scoring expectations based on down, distance and field position. Higher values indicate stronger overall performance.
