Why Hampton ranks #6

  • Omarion Hampton has reached 1+ rushing TD in 2 of 2 games this season.
  • Hampton has 2 rushing TDs in 2 games (1.00 per game) on 17.5 carries per game. With a small sample, that is blended with what a typical RB at this workload produces (0.50 per game), giving 0.70 per game.
  • The Bills have allowed 1.00 rushing TDs per game to RBs over 2 games, versus a league average of 0.63 (+59%). Only 33% of that gap is applied because the sample is small, a x1.20 adjustment.
  • Game environment (rushing TDs x0.96): Vegas total 50.5, implied 21.8 points for LAC (league avg 22.5); Underdog by 7: likely to pass more while trailing.
  • Expected rushing TDs this week: 0.82. That makes the chance of 1+ rushing TD 56%.
  • Small sample: only 2 games so far, so treat this as directional.
How the math works

Rate: (actual total + 3 games of the typical rate) divided by (games played + 3). This keeps one or two games from swinging the estimate.

Matchup: the opponent's allowed rate to RBs divided by the league average, with only n/(n+4) of the gap applied and limited to x0.7 to x1.4.

Chance: expected 0.82, converted with a Poisson count model to the chance of 1+.
