Advanced Football Analytics
Advanced Football Analytics uses its win probability model to analyze strategic coaching decisions such as whether to kick or attempt first down conversions.Research topics include game theory applications, luck and randomness,[9] play calling, home field advantage, run-pass balance, and the relative importance of various facets of performance (offensive passing, offensive rushing, defensive passing, etc.).The site has pioneered other analytical concepts such as Air Yards, which is the distance forward of the line of scrimmage that a pass travels.Advanced Football Analytics also features a catalog of unique individual player stats.During the NFL off-season, Burke has posted original research related to other North American professional sports leagues.
