Why these numbers
  • Statistics: Last 16 games. Schedule-adjusted: the defenses he faced allowed 5% more than average, so his raw 43.9 counts as 41.7. Steady: his longer average has predicted his next game better than his last few games, so all 16 count nearly equally.
  • Matchup: CLE allows 3% more to tight ends than the league average, over 9 games (weighted for sample size).
  • Weather: Forecast at kickoff: 46°F, wind 12 mph, 31% chance of rain or snow, Chance Light Rain. Cold (32°F or colder): milder this week, after freezing weather in 2 of his last 16 games (league-wide −8% in 144 games; his own games: −29% in 4 without vs 30 with). Effect +2%. Rain and snow are shown but not measured yet.
  • Coach / team: Caley's offense vs Rutenberg's defense: no meetings since 2018. Scheme: Erhardt-Perkins offenses vs Zone 4-3 (Tampa 2 tree) defenses, 67 games since 2018, 1% above expectation.
  • Rest / bye: Not coming off a bye.
  • Game time: This game is in the early window. In his 20 games in that window (of his last 34), he was 11% above his usual, schedule-adjusted. Weighted for sample size.
  • Injuries / lineup: Top targets: back to full strength, after being short in 4 of his last 16 games (league-wide +16% in 4154 games; his own games: +44% in 7 without vs 27 with). Effect −7%. Offensive line: Keylan Rutledge (Out, neck) not expected to play (measured per player, weighted for sample size, snap share and how good he has been (Keylan Rutledge: no games without him to compare, league number used); already the case in 5 of his last 16 games). Effect −0%. CLE secondary: Ronnie Hickman (Out, concussion) not expected to play (measured per player, weighted for sample size, snap share and how good he has been (Ronnie Hickman: no games without him to compare, league number used, allows 8.6 yards per target (unit starters: 7.3)); already the case in 8 of his last 16 games). Effect −1%. Watch: offensive line: Trent Brown (Questionable, wrist).
