How this is measured
Each bar is the league at his position; the marker is him. Right is better, the dashed line is the median. Ranks are out of the qualifying pool, ties shown as T-, and move every week as the pool changes.
Brissett scores 13.8 standard points a game, QB25 of 34 QBs with enough games. Most weeks land between 6.7 and 21.2; 1 boom week (25+) and 4 busts (under 12). This week the Seahawks allow the 2nd-fewest standard points to QBs, 10.9 a game.
Brissett scores 13.8 half-PPR points a game, QB24 of 34 QBs with enough games. Most weeks land between 6.7 and 21.5; 1 boom week (25+) and 4 busts (under 12). This week the Seahawks allow the 2nd-fewest half-PPR points to QBs, 10.9 a game.
Brissett scores 13.9 PPR points a game, QB24 of 34 QBs with enough games. Most weeks land between 6.7 and 21.8; 2 boom weeks (25+) and 4 busts (under 12). This week the Seahawks allow the 2nd-fewest PPR points to QBs, 10.9 a game.
How this is measured
Fantasy points are nflverse's standard and full-PPR scoring (6 points for a rushing or receiving touchdown, 4 for a passing touchdown, minus 2 for an interception or a lost fumble); half PPR is the average of the two. Ranks are points a game among players at his position with at least half the most games played. Most weeks is his 20th to 80th percentile game. Bars are green on a boom week and red on a bust; the dashed line is the starter line, the points a game of the QB12 in a 12-team league. The format you pick is remembered on this device.
How he's usedhis fingerprint, where the ball finds him and when
Straight dropbacks: 15% of his attempts come off play action (league 22%). Almost no RPOs: 0% of his dropbacks (league 2%). The blitz gets to him: -0.24 EPA a dropback when blitzed against not (league -0.10).
How this is measured
Every trait is a share of his own dropbacks, so volume does not move it. The marker is him among the league's qualifying quarterbacks; the dashed line is the median. Styles are not grades: a high or low percentile is a description, not a verdict. Play action, screen, RPO, motion and blitz flags come from FTN charting and read low in a week it has not published.
Brissett's -10.3 EPA is 31st of 38 quarterbacks. The biggest share comes after the catch (+110.3, 22nd percentile per dropback). His runs rank in the 96th percentile (+7.9).
career -0.04 over 2016–2025 · his 4th best of 8
How this is measured
Every dropback and run this season, split by what happened. Completions divide at the catch: the yards in the air, and his credited share of what came after (nflverse's air EPA and QB EPA). Per dropback counts scrambles as dropbacks. The percentile is him among the qualifying quarterbacks, higher is better, so a cost smaller than most ranks high. The parts add up to the totals above; the career strip counts seasons with at least 50 attempts.
He throws intermediate right 1.3× as often as the league (10% of his attempts against 7%) and gains +0.42 EPA a throw there.
How this is measured
Every pass attempt with a charted depth and direction this season; sacks and throws with no charted direction are left out. Left and right are as the offense sees the field. Cells with fewer than three throws show no EPA.

Dropbacks are steady: 37.7 a game over his last three against 40.5 for the season. At or above a starter's median in yards in 4 of 8 games.
How this is measured
Bars are his week. The shaded band is the league's middle half at his position, every qualifying player-game this season, and the dashed line is its median. The solid line is his trailing three games. An × on the baseline is a game his team played without him; a dotted tick is the bye.
He has faced the 7th-toughest slate vs the pass: his opponents rank 14.4 of 32 on average (league middle 16.4). Ahead: 2 of his next 9 are top-10 vs the pass and 4 are bottom-10, starting with the Seahawks (4th, away) in Week 9.
