Money down · 3rd-down role
Money down
14 of 24 caught on third down (58.3%) — EPA/target 1.20 vs 0.57 elsewhere (13 conversions).
Catch rate is disclosed context only, never the gate — conversions and EPA/target are. Interception targets carry no attribution row at any source, so EPA/target here is unfixably, slightly inflated.
