THE SHORT VERSION

“DVOA is a method of evaluating teams, units, or players. It takes every single play during the NFL season and compares each one to a league-average baseline based on situation. DVOA measures not just yardage, but yardage towards a first down: Five yards on third-and-4 are worth more than five yards on first-and-10 and much more than five yards on third-and-12. Performance is also adjusted for the quality of the opponent. DVOA is a percentage, so a team with a DVOA of 10.0% is 10% better than the average team, and a quarterback with a DVOA of -20.0% is 20% worse than the average quarterback. Because DVOA measures scoring, defenses are better when they are negative. Every year is normalized so the average for that year is 0%. For more detail, read below.”

  1. The team genuinely looks good minus blowing two leads horrendously. Not perfect, but good. Gannon took accountability and I have far more trust in him than the previous however many coaches since BA to correct his mistake. We’ve got two real football teams coming up, I think we’ll learn a lot about the team in those games.
