What Turnovers (Off − Def) is

Turnovers given away minus turnovers taken — turnover margin, from the team's point of view. Lower is better; it is one of the biggest single swings in a game's result, and one of the least repeatable.

Lower is better. It is shown per game, so a team's number does not depend on games played. Source: P + N.

Through Week 6 of 2026, the Chiefs lead at -1.25; the league average is -0.10.
