Team statistics – 2026 Season – Through Week 3. League ranks are out of 32, and 1 is best on every row — fewest penalties and fewest interceptions thrown rank first, not most. The statistic shown for each game is the one on which the two teams differ most in league rank; ties are broken by a fixed field order, so the choice is the same on every run. Practice-report counts are practice participation levels, not game-status designations: no Out, Doubtful or Questionable designations have been published for these games yet.
