It’s time for another advanced stats roundup for everyone’s favorite division, the NFC East! It’s been a tough year for each of these teams for a variety of reasons, but there have been bright spots.

An important reminder before we go any further: EPA stands for Expected Points Added, a formula that calculates how much better or worse of a position your team is in to score after any given play. It’s based on down, distance, field position, and time remaining. The EPA calculations in this piece come from nflfastR and rbsdm.com.
