That’s an average of less than 11 challenges per coach, so on average a coach doesn’t use any challenges in about 1/3rd of his games. Of course, coaches tend to challenge a lot, and others almost never, but it’s a very rare game when all four (or more, depending) challenges get used.

On the other hand, the thing you didn’t point out about the NFL (and NCAA football) is that, as time has gone by, more and more plays are reviewed “in the booth”, and coaches don’t get a chance to challenge them. That’s the trend you want to think about for the MLL.
