Player ratings, 2022

OV describes the abilities a player has shown over several seasons; it is not a forecast: for next season, last season's performance (PAL) tells you as much.

WAR and PAL Rating, 2022

How we rate →

WAR: the EPA (expected points added) of every play, above replacement level, shared among those who made it, then converted to wins (35.3 points = one win). PAL Rating scores performance from 0 to 100 against regulars in the same group (50 = median).

Splash plays4

Where WAR comes from (in wins)

Splash plays−0.10

Half the EPA of his sacks, interceptions, passes defended, forced fumbles, tackles for loss and QB hits, against his position's average per snap.

Coverage+0.04

Yards allowed per target against his position's average, 0.12 points per yard (measured).

Position share+0.05

Replacement level: the share of defense the league spends on his position (by payroll), prorated by snaps.

Team defense−0.06

How much better or worse than average his team's defense was (EPA allowed), minus what is already credited to players, prorated by snaps.

The individual part is splash plays and coverage. The rest is the position share and his team's defense, split by snaps played.
