How to read the numbers

Win chance: how often the candidate wins the award across the simulated seasons. Each simulated season adds the remaining games, simulated one by one, to the statistics so far, and the award model picks among that season's candidates.

Projected season: the average over the simulated seasons of the regular-season totals, through conference championship weekend.

Through week 6: every game played through week 6 counts; later games are simulated.
