Middle half of the simulations: 6 to 8 wins. The wider published interval, the 10th to the 90th, is 5 to 9. The sim publishes those two percentiles only, so the middle half is derived from them rather than read.

These are 2026 figures, through week 7. EPA per scrimmage play (pass or rush, kneels and spikes excluded), measured from this season’s play-by-play and republished every Tuesday with the rating and the playoff odds. Defense is EPA allowed per play, so less is better.
Early in a season these are small samples: one week is a single opponent, so a rank can move a long way on one game.
