Ask Roger anything. Three analysts over StatPad's own models, and every number comes from a real query against our database: play by play since 2016, route and coverage charting, 10,000 simulations per game, and player projections with full distributions. What you get: ROGER, THE NFL AI ANALYST Question him like a colleague: blitz splits, coverage splits, gap-level matchups, season outlooks. Sample sizes attached, coverage windows named, and who can play said first, with the date and the week a player is eligible back. EVERY NUMBER, EXPLAINED Every projection says how it was made: the model's own number, the role it rests on, the room it was adjusted for when a teammate is out. Tap the basis and read the ledger. EVERY GAME, MODELED 10,000 simulations per matchup, with the win probability, the expected margin and the total on every card, and how our read compares with the public consensus. PROJECTIONS WITH REAL PROBABILITY Full distribution curves for yards, receptions, touchdowns and carries, the likely range on every one, and a workload behind every rushing number. THE ROOMS Every team page shows who the model expects to carry the load at each position this week and the next names behind him, read from this season's roster, so a player who changed teams is projected where he plays now. EVERY TARGET, ON THE FIELD Route trees and target maps built from public charting data, week by week. THE FACTORS THE BOX SCORE HIDES Weather, travel miles, body clock, officiating crews, measured and shown. DRAFT SEASON, PRICED 1,000 simulations per player with dated vintages, so you know when a number was made. Your first three Roger answers are on us. Then pay per question: credit packs from $4.99, a weekly pass, or a season pass. Heard a creator's code on a Live? It gives new subscribers 3 free days of the Week Pass.
