Prediction for Jordan Love

Nobody knows which slot Jordan Love will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Jets.

If Jordan Love plays as
15.6
projected PPR points

I predict about 15.6 points for Jordan Love if playing as a QB1. Jordan Love has averaged 19.5 over 1 game, and the Jets have given up 11.7 to QB1s (-33% vs the league average of 17.4).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Jordan Love scored: Wk 1 19.5. Average 19.5; weighted toward recent games it is 16.9.

2. The defense. Over 1 game, the Jets allowed 11.7 points to their opponent's QB1. The league average for that slot is 17.4, so that is -33%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 1 defensive game, only 25% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -8% adjustment (x0.92).

4. Result. 16.9 x 0.92 = 15.6. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.

It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.

Chance to score

Type a point total to see how likely Jordan Love is to reach it as a QB1.

40%
chance of 16+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (15.6) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 9.3 points, leaning on Jordan Love's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical QB swings before that).

Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 16.

With only 1 game of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.

Insights

  • QB1s have averaged 140.0 passing yards, 1.0 passing TDs and 21.0 rushing yards against the Jets across 1 game.
  • The Jets allow 11.7 PPR points to QB1s, -33% versus the league average of 17.4 (ranked 25 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a tough matchup.
  • QB1s scored a touchdown in 1 of 1 games (100%).
  • Small sample: only 1 game so far. Treat these numbers as directional, not settled.

Insights are generated by rules from the table above and recalculate every week.

Medium confidence
  • Jordan Love averages 16.6 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 16.3) and has played as the team's QB1.
  • The Jets have allowed 12.8 points to QB1s over 2 games (-25% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a -10% adjustment.
  • Last season's average (15.7) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
  • Projection: 14.4 points.
  • For reference, a typical weekly starter-level QB scores about 18.1 and a top-tier one about 24.5.
  • A statistical model from box scores, Vegas lines, weather and injury tags. It cannot see role changes or in-game events.

Jordan Love's stats vs the Jets

Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Jets, plus a projection for this game.

What is this table?

Rows at the top are every game Jordan Love has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.

Compare against picks which group of Jets opponents to line them up with: the best QB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Jordan Love will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

Jets avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Jordan Love's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Jordan Love usually produces.

Projected is Jordan Love's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Jets were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.

Difference is what the defense allows minus what Love averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
