Crunching this week's bets
Running the numbers on every player, defense, line and forecast. This can take a few seconds.
For information and entertainment only, not betting advice. Chances come from a statistical model built on this season's and last season's box scores; they are estimates, not locks. Must be 21+ where legal. If gambling is a problem, call 1-800-GAMBLER.

How good a betting target Wayne is this week, 0–100, from real stats. 50 is a typical WR. Provisional: fewer than 4 games behind it.
How much of the offense runs through the player, weighted toward recent games and pulled toward last season.
Last 3 games against the player's usual. Shown for context; it barely predicted the next game in testing.
Not enough games to measure yet.
What the player does with each chance, pulled hard toward the position average because it's noisy.
This week's opponent and game setup, the same adjustments our bet chances use.
How steady the stat the bet settles on is week to week. Steadier is better.
Provisional: 4 games behind it, so the score is pulled toward 50.

Week 9 · Sun, Nov 8, 4:05 PM ET
What the model expects, the middle 80% of outcomes, and our chance at the highlighted line (or the main line, where none is highlighted).
Wayne's games against the Chargers this season and last.
No games against the Chargers with a real role in the last two seasons.
Share of the offense each week. Role changes usually show up before yardage and catch totals do.
Bars: each game this season. Dotted line: this season's average. Dashed: 2025 average.
Receptions per game. Grey means fewer than 4 games on one side: noise, not signal.
This season. Volatility is for receptions.
Hit records count every game with a real role this season and last season (same position). “Reliably” is a cautious lower estimate that pools both seasons, with last season worth at most 8 games.
This week's chances come from the same model as the rest of the Bets pages: the player's rate per carry or target, blended with last season and a typical player at that workload, adjusted for the defense, the Vegas game setup, weather, the quarterback and injuries.
