Five Week 17 matchups you should exploit
Yahoo Sports Exclusive
Schedule-adjusted Fantasy Points allowed aFPA, is 4for4’s answer to biased statistics. We can remove bias and make matchups “apples to apples” by removing bias. The data will change as the season progresses. Regardless, aFPA remains the most powerful tool to get an edge in building lineups and waivers.
Another point I want to mention: I could offer players the following Josh Allen Patrick Mahomes They are often faced with bad units, according to aFPA, almost every week. It is a disservice to everyone, so I will do all I can to avoid rostering fantasy players in any fantasy leagues.
Here are the best plays from Week 17, the final week of the column. We are grateful for your continued support throughout the season. It means a lot.
Goff can be rostered for several reasons. The Bears defense is poor, ranking 22nd in aFPA against QBs. RBs. WRs. Another reason is the injury. Jamaal Williams. Williams was the Lions’ lead rusher until he was injured. D’Andre Swift Justin Jackson All the work will be done by Jackson (3). Swift (13) and Jackson (33) outtargeted Williams (2) during the passing match over the past 2 weeks. Goff is also pleased with the dome in Detroit. Justin Fields Chicago will be expected to play, so both teams should try to score points.
The Arizona Cardinals play as many ineffective games as any team. Their season is winding down and everything is changing. Allgeier could add insult to injury, embarrassment and frustration in Week 17, against the 31st-ranked defense of RB aFPA. Allgeier’s workload has increased, with 35 carries in the last two games. Although his 4.11 yards per carry was his worst since Week 10 he added 4/43/0 to his passing game. Cordarrelle Patterson The Cardinals provide little resistance, and the Falcons don’t hide their willingness to #EstablishIt. Desmond Ridder under center.
Preseason hype was everywhere fantasy football players turned. The 2022 fantasy football season is over with even more hype. The Bengals defense has slowly fallen to the bottom in WR aFPA, landing with a thud at 31 out of 32 teams. Kendrick Bourne Jakobi Meyers Week 16 featured some incredible games Russell Gage was relevant in Week 15. Marquez Valdes-Scantling’s 71 receiving yards in Week 13 are good for his third-most of the season. Although the Bengals defense is less dominant in passing, it has a strong defense. Josh Allen being the top runner in the Bills’ offense, the focal point does not change as they go forward with Week 17’s game plan. Davis is the team’s aDOT leader by four yards, and a matchup against Cincy could mean big plays early and often as we have seen from him in the past.
McBride, despite being surrounded with mediocrity, has played at least 73% in snaps since the Cardinals lost. Zach Ertz for the season, and his target share has increased since the team’s Week 13 bye. He is the 11th most targeted TE player since Week 14. This is more than enough for him to be a streaming option. You have a recipe to success.
Have you seen the? Chargers Did to Nick Foles? While the Giants are a Jekyll/Hyde defensive team, Indy’s arrival to town brings with it defensive positivity. The Giants are 17th among all teams in sack percentage. However, they recorded a sack with 9.24% of snaps over the past three weeks (6th) and 8.46% while at home (8th). The offense is not only allowing the most fantasy points to opposing defenses, but it’s also riding the struggle bus with the Colts on offense.
