Middle half of the simulations: 8 to 10 wins. The wider published interval, the 10th to the 90th, is 6.5 to 11.5. The sim publishes those two percentiles only, so the middle half is derived from them rather than read.

These are 2025 figures and they fill in as 2026 is played. EPA per play is produced per season, so a 2026 column replaces this one once enough games exist to compute it. It is shown as last season’s rather than left blank because a measured figure from the season just gone says more about a roster in week 2 than an empty card does.
The 2026 feed does carry offense and defense fields, and they are not used: measured across all 32 clubs, offRating equals defRating and both equal the overall rating halved, so they separate nothing. The rankings board drops them for the same reason.
