What Total yards is

Total yards gained from scrimmage, passing and rushing together. Volume, not efficiency — teams that trail pile these up throwing against soft coverage.

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 Rams lead at 424.4; the league average is 333.0.
