How every metric on this site is calculated
All four components are normalized within the season so the top team always scores 100. The top team in any season has a Power Score of 100. AvgScore is weighted 4x because it best captures raw team quality independent of schedule luck. The result is a number between 0 and 100.
A positive Luck score means the team won more games than their scoring deserved. A negative Luck score means they were good but got unlucky with scheduling. For example, a team that scores above the median every week but keeps facing the one team that scores higher will have negative luck. Luck is always relative to the league average that season.
All-play win rate is the purest measure of team strength because it removes schedule luck entirely. A team that scores above the median 12 out of 14 weeks has a high all-play rate regardless of their actual record. Used as an input to both Power Score and Luck.
Both axes are centered at zero (league average). The four quadrants tell the story: top-right is good and lucky, bottom-right is good but unlucky, top-left is lucky but not actually strong, bottom-left is bad and unlucky. The all-time view aggregates data across multiple seasons, giving each manager a career position on the chart.
The rivalry score is on a 0-100 scale. A pure stats rivalry with no interpersonal history maxes out at 60. A named rivalry with no head-to-head history scores 40. Most top rivalries combine both. The score determines the ordering on the rivalry page and each manager's top 3 rivals.
Career rank gives equal weight to sustained excellence (power score) and winning when it counts (championships). A manager who wins 3 rings but plays inconsistently will rank similarly to a manager who plays at an elite level every season but never wins. Both are considered equally valid paths to the top.
All point totals on this site are regular season only unless explicitly noted. Playoff games and Sacko games are excluded from career and season totals.
Ties are excluded from win percentage calculations. Playoff games are excluded unless the toggle is enabled.
Sacko games are tracked separately from the playoff bracket and are excluded from power score, luck, and all-play calculations. On the H2H page, Sacko games are labeled separately from playoff games.
