What Drives is

Offensive drives: the number of possessions the offense had. It sets the pace that every other drive-level number is measured against — a team with few drives and many points per drive is efficient; one with many drives is playing fast or getting the ball back often.

Higher 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 Seahawks lead at 12.40; the league average is 10.90.
