What changed, what the data shows, what is still unknown
Wire Report shows what changed, what the data proves happened the last time it changed, and what is still unknown, checked before it publishes.
Each NFL week gets five products. Every number is labeled as a recorded fact, our calculation with its definition, or an interpretation. An independent editor checks each week before it goes up, and the audit result sits at the top of the page.
- Opportunity LedgerTarget and carry share this week against each player's own recent baseline.
- Absence RedistributionWhere the targets and carries went when a regular missed games.
- Role Persistence AuditEvery role change we flag gets a follow-up: did it hold the next week?
- Score AutopsyThe week's biggest swings, split into volume, efficiency, receptions, touchdowns and the rest.
- Projection AuditProjections saved before kickoff, scored against what happened.
