Prediction & chance to scoreJake Ferguson vs the Ravens

Prediction for Jake Ferguson

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

If Jake Ferguson plays as
11.8
projected PPR points

I predict about 11.8 points for Jake Ferguson if playing as a TE1. Jake Ferguson has averaged 11.5 over 2 games, and the Ravens have given up 10.4 to TE1s (+2% vs the league average of 10.3).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Jake Ferguson scored: Wk 1 2.6, Wk 2 20.3. Average 11.5; weighted toward recent games it is 11.7.

2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Ravens allowed 10.4 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.3, so that is +2%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +1% adjustment (x1.01).

4. Result. 11.7 x 1.01 = 11.8. 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.

41%
chance of 12+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (11.8) 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 7.1 points, leaning on Jake Ferguson's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical TE 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 12.

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%.

InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table

Start / Sit · Jake FergusonMedium confidence · 12.9 proj ptsFlex
  • Jake Ferguson averages 11.5 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 12.4) and has played as the team's TE1.
  • The Ravens have allowed 10.4 points to TE1s over 2 games (+2% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +1% adjustment.
  • Last season's average (11.1) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
  • Game environment +9%: Vegas total 52.5, implied 24.8 points for DAL (league avg 22.5); Underdog by 3: likely to pass more while trailing; Indoors: no weather effect, a small boost for passing and kicking.
  • Projection: 12.9 points.
  • For reference, a typical weekly starter-level TE scores about 13.1 and a top-tier one about 19.6.
  • A statistical model from box scores, Vegas lines, weather and injury tags. It cannot see role changes or in-game events.
Jake Ferguson's stats vs the RavensSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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

What is this table?

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

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

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

Projected is Jake Ferguson's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Ravens 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.
