Travel & rest
How far every team flies, how many time zones it crosses, when it plays on a short week or off a bye, and what the 2026 results say about long trips and tired legs. Miles are stadium to stadium, there and back.

Does travel matter?
2026 results · 272 team-games playedEach game counts twice, once for each team. Off EPA is expected points added per offensive play (passes and runs, nflverse play-by-play); net EPA is offense minus what the defense allowed. Neutral-site games count as road games for both teams. With one season of data, samples under about 20 games swing on a few results: read them as a description of 2026, not as a rule.

Method: miles are great-circle distances between stadiums (verified coordinates), so real flights run a little longer. Each road game counts as a round trip from the home stadium, since NFL teams fly home between games; neutral-site and international games count for both teams. Time zones are counted out and back with daylight saving applied on game day. Rest is calendar days (Eastern time) since the previous game: Sunday to Sunday is 7, Thursday after Sunday is 4. A short week is 5 days or fewer; a long trip is more than 1,500 miles one way; an early body clock is a road kickoff before 11 a.m. on the team's home clock, the classic West Coast team at 1 p.m. Eastern.
