How it's built
Play-by-play, not box scores
Usage is counted play by play from nflverse's public NFL data: every target, carry and dropback, and where on the field it started.
Checked against the official stats
Before anything is published, our totals are matched against nflverse's official weekly stats. The current report: 1,243 player-games checked, 0 mismatches.
Estimates are labeled
Expected points are an FFO model estimate of what the same usage has usually scored. They describe usage; they are never presented as a forecast.
