What Arizona calls on every down, distance and part of the field, and how often each call works.
Every play is counted, so these tables line up with a box score. "Close-game plays only" leaves out snaps after a game is decided, when teams stop calling plays the way they normally do.
Arizona's plays work 51% of the time (142 of 276). All teams: 44%. That is better than most. A play "works" when it stays on schedule: half the distance on first down, 70% on second, all of it on third or fourth.

From 5 games through week 5, garbage time left out. Every line compares this team with all FBS teams in the same spot and shows the count behind it. "Small sample" means fewer than 15 plays, so treat it as a lead, not a fact. Copy puts the line on your clipboard, ready to paste.
The rank is among FBS teams, with 1st the best for an offense, and the bar fills toward the best. Garbage time is left out. These are plain rates, not adjusted for opponent. A drive's points count the touchdown with its extra point or a field goal.
345 plays across 5 games. Run rate 44%. The quarterback has 32 of 152 runs, and the feed cannot tell a designed keeper from a scramble.
