Football analytics have been growing in popularity for many years now. The popularization of Expected Points Added (EPA) has changed the way many evaluate the game.

Player tracking has unlocked a whole new world of possibilities in the football-analytics space. NFL NextGen stats has allowed Data Scientists like myself to take a deeper look into not only what has happened on the football field, but also what could have happened.

QB-iQ is a new metric I have developed to quantitatively evaluate a quarterbacks decision making, regardless of the pass outcome.
