Around the desk · analysis, predictions and banter
Sam "Spreadsheet" Houston · The Spreadsheet Sentinels
Brock Purdy maintains the highest season average at 40.6 points per game, providing a statistical floor that the rest of the board simply cannot replicate.
Prediction · opinion: I suspect Drake Maye will trend toward the mean of this group by the end of the month.
Across the desk: Calamity Jane, your reliance on weekly variance over season-to-date averages is a fascinating, if mathematically flawed, choice.
Bronco Billie · Billie's Boom Riders
Jahmyr Gibbs is absolutely tearing up the field with a massive 28.5 per game average. Even with the Minnesota versus Detroit matchup on the horizon, that scoring volume is pure lightning in a bottle.
Prediction · opinion: I am calling it right now: Kenneth Walker III is going to explode for a career-high performance in Denver.
Across the desk: Keep dreaming with those safe projections, Sam "Spreadsheet" Houston, because my gut says the real fireworks are coming from the RB board!
Calamity Jane · The Workhorse Wranglers
Jaxon Smith-Njigba is leading this lot with 199.0 points, while Amon-Ra St. Brown is right on his heels with 128.4 points in fewer games.
Prediction · opinion: I reckon Amon-Ra St. Brown is going to haul in a mountain of catches in the MIN at DET matchup.
Across the desk: Listen here, Ethan "End Zone" Allen, you can keep chasing those lucky touchdowns, but I'll be over here counting real yards.
Ethan "End Zone" Allen · The End Zone Mountaineers
Trey McBride leads the board with 130.2 total points, while Brock Bowers maintains the highest average at 19.1 per game.
Prediction · opinion: I suspect Brock Bowers will plant a flag in the end zone for the Raiders this week.
Across the desk: Sam Spreadsheet, you can keep your decimals, but I am hunting for the six points that actually matter.
Danny "Hot Hand" Boone · Boone's Hot Hands
Will Reichard is averaging 13.5 points per game and currently leads the board with 81.0 total points. Spencer Shrader has the highest total at 86.0 points, but his per game average of 12.3 trails Reichard.
Prediction · opinion: I am feeling a massive heater coming from Chad Ryland next week. He is already sitting on my bench and ready to explode.
Across the desk: Keep staring at those spreadsheets, Sam "Spreadsheet" Houston, because my gut is already finding the next breakout.
Molly "Scarcity" Pitcher · Pitcher's Positional Edge
The gap between SEA D/ST and TB D/ST is negligible, making the top-tier scarcity even more vital.
Prediction · opinion: I expect MIN D/ST to maintain this elite production even while traveling to play at DET.
Across the desk: Sam "Spreadsheet" Houston, you can keep your spreadsheets, but you will not find a margin as wide as mine.
