1976: no recorded NFL regular-season production. StatVault's source covers these seasons in full, so this is an absence of production, not of data.
9 seasons · peak 6.1 in 1984
VAL (Value Above League) measures each NFL season against that season's league; the dashed line is zero — a season that added nothing above the league's fringe. ● peak · ○ league-best season.
1.3 career wins over 9 seasons · 1 win = 13.08 VAL
Best season · 1984 · +0.5 wins
0.5 of DAL's 9 wins (5%)
Latest season · 1987 · +0.2 wins
0.2 of DAL's 7 wins (2%)
VAL 3.0 measures each part of a NFL player's game in his sport's own currency against what that season's fringe players produced, converted to team wins with rates fitted from every team-season in the encyclopedia. Team wins are the club's actual regular-season wins; a traded season, or one whose club record is missing, shows no share.
