What am I looking at?
  • Individual refs: stats for one official across all Bengals games they worked, even with different partners.
  • Ref crews: stats when the same seven officials worked together on the Bengals games (5+ games shown by default).
  • Team baseline: the Bengals went 9-11 (45.0%) across this sample. Ref and crew win rates show how they compare to that team average.
  • Whistle differential: flag differential. A positive number means opponents are flagged more often than the Bengals.
