Rushing Contact — YAC vs YBC per carry

PFR advanced charting splits each carry into yards after contact — the back's own elusiveness and power — and yards before contact, the line and scheme term. An independent estimator to triangulate against Next Gen RYOE.

How we read it

YAC/att — the back's own talent
Yards after contact per carry isolates elusiveness and power. It's blocking-independent, so a high figure is the back doing the work himself.
YBC/att — the line and scheme
Yards before contact per carry is the room the offensive line and design hand him. High YBC with modest YAC reads as a line-aided profile.
The divergence — who's driving the yards
Elite YAC behind thin YBC is a back winning on his own — a second, independent estimator to triangulate against Next Gen RYOE. We surface the split, we don't average it away.
