What Pass yds per cmp is

Yards per completion: passing yards divided by completions. It describes how far downfield an offense throws — a high number means the completions came on deep throws, a low one means a short passing game — rather than how efficient it was.

Higher is better. It is a rate, so a team's number does not grow with games played. Source: P + N.

Through Week 6 of 2026, the Bills lead at 13.09; the league average is 10.37.
