How Ashton Jeanty should do vs the BroncosSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Broncos, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Ashton Jeanty has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Broncos opponents to line them up with: the best RB they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Ashton Jeanty will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Broncos avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Ashton Jeanty's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Ashton Jeanty usually produces.
Projected is Ashton Jeanty's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Broncos 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 Jeanty averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Start / Sit · Ashton JeantyMedium confidence · 21.1 proj ptsMust Start
- Ashton Jeanty averages 21.5 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 20.3) and has played as the team's RB1.
- The Broncos have allowed 24.1 points to RB1s over 2 games (+54% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +22% adjustment.
- Last season's average (14.4) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Projection: 21.1 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level RB scores about 12.2 and a top-tier one about 20.0.

Prediction & chance to scoreAshton Jeanty vs the Broncos
Prediction for Ashton Jeanty
Nobody knows which slot Ashton Jeanty will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Broncos.
I predict about 21.1 points for Ashton Jeanty if playing as a RB1. Ashton Jeanty has averaged 21.5 over 2 games, and the Broncos have given up 24.1 to RB1s (+54% vs the league average of 15.7).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Ashton Jeanty scored: Wk 1 32.7, Wk 2 10.3. Average 21.5; weighted toward recent games it is 17.3.
2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Broncos allowed 24.1 points to their opponent's RB1. The league average for that slot is 15.7, so that is +54%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +22% adjustment (x1.22).
4. Result. 17.3 x 1.22 = 21.1. 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 Ashton Jeanty is to reach it as a RB1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (21.1) 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 12.7 points, leaning on Ashton Jeanty's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical RB 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 21.
With only 2 games 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%.
