Information, not picks. Every figure below is a factual record drawn from completed games and the market's spread/total: win-loss counts, cover counts and Over/Under counts, nothing more. We publish no pick, lean, or projection on this page. "Against the spread" counts games by the market's closing line, or the opening line where no closing price was recorded. Records cover the seasons present in our data (2020-2026 for line-based records) and are current as of Oct 18, 2026.

Finished with 10 or more wins in 5 of the last 10 seasons (2016 to 2025). The same 10-win benchmark is applied on all 32 team pages, so the counts compare.
Fewest in the window: 6 wins (2020). Most: 13 wins (2016). Median 9.5.
The NFL regular season went from 16 games to 17 in 2021, so win counts either side of that change are not on the same scale. The Games played column states how long each season was.
The 2026 season is still being played and is not counted in any figure above. Its record so far is in the season snapshot on this page.
