Differential = this team's offense minus its own defense for like metrics · Positive = offense leads · Ranked vs all 32 teams
Staying out of obvious passing situations — 2nd & 8+, where the box thins, and 3rd & 5+, where the defense subs to dime and pressure passes 42%. 1st down success is staying on schedule, on 1st & 10 only. 2nd & 8+ → 3rd & 4 or less is climbing back out once already behind the sticks — a first down, or enough yardage to leave a 3rd down the defense still has to respect the run on. Escape rate is the two averaged evenly. 2nd & 8+ is a quarter of the snaps but carries enough leverage to matter as much, so weighting by volume would bury it.

* Freq = % of snaps in this personnel grouping. EPA ranks are 1-32 based on the team's efficiency in this specific grouping vs the rest of the league (defense EPA is what the grouping allowed — lower is better). Colors indicate performance relative to the NFL average for that grouping. Play Action Rate and Pressure Rate Allowed are offense-only — a defense doesn't run play action, and its own pressure-generated rate lives on the Overview tab, not this grouping breakdown. Play Action Rate's rank is just usage order (highest first), not a good/bad judgment; Pressure Rate Allowed is colored (lower is better).
** Two sources on one table, on purpose. Freq comes from Sumer Sports per-play charting; FTN's own usage rates understated heavy personnel badly enough to be unusable (it had SF at 0.2% 21 personnel in 2025, against Sumer's 36.3%, in a season its fullback played 629 snaps). Every other column is FTN, whose per-grouping splits are internally consistent and weren't shown to share that bug. Freq columns won't sum to 100% — the remainder is the rarer packages (10, 02, 23...) that neither source breaks out here. Sumer charting starts in 2022; earlier seasons fall back to FTN's usage rates.
