The #NFL teams hurt/helped most by penalties this season
This shows each team’s net gain/loss of Win Probability as a result of flags
We think taking this unique approach to measuring the impact of penalties brings something new and interesting to #NFLStats. We hope you do too!
1/ As we evaluate the prospect of Meadows's motion to remove his prosecution from State to Federal Court, important to remember that the governing law will be fed'l law & the appeal of the district judge's decision will go to the 11th Circuit. Not a state law matter.
Well that wraps up an incredible post-season
Thank you so much for everyone who joined us and especially those who retweeted/followed/commented!
Can we get some love for the officials who joined us behind the scenes to share their insights throughout the postseason?
Pass Interference by the #Bengals cost them an additional 9.29% Win Probability
The officials doing their best to make our pregame prediction look foolish by making these highly impactful penalty calls (properly officiated ones) after a game with no in-play whistles

We don't currently handle offsetting penalty Win Probability impacts. But it's safe to say if you call only one of those penalties, you are getting a 20+% Win Probability impact
A massive Defensive Holding call against the #Bengals gives the #Rams turns a 4th and Goal into a 1st and Goal
The Bengals lost 20.07% Win Probability on the play
#StatThat
@Paul_Martin33 Yeah, that one was massive: 26.46% Win Probability lost on that missed call
But ideally the #NFL would put new systems in place that help officials get these critical calls right
@thekillakay_ The #Rams lost 24.37% Win Probability on that Face Mask no-call. That was a massive missed penalty (the largest no-call of the entire playoffs)
It was almost as impactful by the numbers as the #Saints missed call everyone remembers

@nroll19@bdjskajhshsuaj @GeneYussVA You don't have to start with reviewing everything, just everything that would potentially have a large impact on Win Probability. That's a much more manageable goal

Let's put the missed Face Mask in historical perspective. The most famous missed penalty in recent playoff history was the uncalled DPI that ultimately cost the #Saints a Super Bowl berth
The Saints lost 26.46% WP on that play. The #Rams lost 24.37% WP
#StatThat
A no-call can be every bit as impactful as a flag that is thrown. The #Saints know this better than most: https://t.co/qsJGGvFzSF
When the officials failed to flag the #Rams for DPI, the Saints lost over 26.46% Win Probability and ultimately lost the game and a Super Bowl berth
@Kwando3242 We use Win Probability models to compare the state of the game without the penalty a #Bengals TD to the state of the game with the penalty. That difference was 24.37%

This is nearly a 25% Win Probability swing in the most important #NFL game on a missed call that *could* have been properly officiated with a more robust review system put in place
Change is 100% needed
