THE WIDER PICTURE
| Team | SRS | SOS | MARGIN | TO +/- |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Patriots | +3.3 | +3.8 | -0.5 | -6 |
| Seahawks | +12.3 | +0.6 | +11.7 | +12 |
SRS is how many points a side beats an
average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good
team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20.
SOS is how hard that schedule has been.

IN THE BOOTH
Sierra Vaughn
Analyst
Drake Maye threw for 509 yards and 5 touchdowns but also 3 interceptions, and that's the difference — New England turned it over 3 times to Seattle's 0, and you don't win 51-42 games on the road when you're giving the ball away.
They only ever read the box score and this league's own numbers —
none of them has a source, and none of them can report anything that
did not happen.

Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
