Also, how is this calculated? Anyone know?
I believe it's an 'ahead of the sticks' analysis.

Runs that gain 4+ yards or get a 1st down qualify.

EDIT: Not quite; it IS an ahead of the sticks analysis, but it's percentage based:

40% of the yards needed to gain a 1st on 1st down.
60% of the yards needed to gain a 1st on 2nd downs.
100% of the yards needed to gain a 1st down on 3rd or 4th downs.

Not a bad little metric, really.
