Chase Brown or Omarion Hampton?

Chase Brown or Omarion Hampton? Both are RBs. Their 2026 through Week 8 figures are below, as of Oct 30, 2026; here is what each man's 2025 season was built on.

Omarion Hampton's edge sits in rushing yards over expected per attempt and receiving expected points added — efficiency rather than opportunity, and the file measures that as the less repeatable half.

Figures are verified play-by-play (nflverse); scored Half-PPR. Repeatability is measured from year-over-year persistence across 2016 to 2025, not projected. Muffed publishes no projections, draft grades or start/sit advice.

A dash means the panel holds no qualifying figure for that player — usually too few games or attempts to clear the metric's floor, not a zero. Ranks are the source's own, against the population shown, and run through the same week as the figures. Not shown, because the panel holds no 2026 through Week 8 figure for either player: Finish, Games, Snap share, Availability.

Chase Brown: MIXEDOmarion Hampton: VOLATILE

Chase Brown leads on share of his team's offensive snaps and rushing attempts, and also on rushing yards over expected — one side of that is opportunity, the other is efficiency, and they have not historically travelled together. Omarion Hampton's edge sits in rushing yards over expected per attempt and receiving expected points added — efficiency rather than opportunity, and the file measures that as the less repeatable half. Of the two, Chase Brown's season rests on the steadier ground. That is a statement about what each man's production was built on, not a running order — and it is a description of 2025, not a forecast of 2026.

“Repeats” is measured year-over-year persistence across 2016 to 2025 — opportunity carries between seasons, scoring rate largely does not. This describes what a 2025 season was built on. It is not a forecast, and Muffed publishes no projections, draft grades or start/sit advice. How we measure it.
