Prediction for Parker Washington
Nobody knows which slot Parker Washington will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Colts.
I predict about 16.1 points for Parker Washington if playing as a WR1. Parker Washington has averaged 18.1 over 2 games, and the Colts have given up 19.8 to WR1s (+16% vs the league average of 17.0).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Parker Washington scored: Wk 1 19.3, Wk 2 16.8. Average 18.1; weighted toward recent games it is 15.1.
2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Colts allowed 19.8 points to their opponent's WR1. The league average for that slot is 17.0, so that is +16%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +7% adjustment (x1.07).
4. Result. 15.1 x 1.07 = 16.1. 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 Parker Washington is to reach it as a WR1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (16.1) 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 9.7 points, leaning on Parker Washington's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical WR 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 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%.

- Parker Washington averages 18.1 PPR points over 2 games (recent-weighted 17.9) and has played as the team's WR1.
- The Colts have allowed 19.8 points to WR1s over 2 games (+16% vs league). The model applies 40% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +7% adjustment.
- Last season's average (12.3) is blended in at 50% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Projection: 16.1 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level WR scores about 11.8 and a top-tier one about 20.8.

Parker Washington's stats vs the Colts
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Colts, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Parker Washington has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Colts opponents to line them up with: the best WR they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Parker Washington will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Colts avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Parker Washington's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Parker Washington usually produces.
Projected is Parker Washington's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Colts 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.
| Wk | Opp | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | CLE | 6 | 5 | 83 | 1 | 19.3 |
| 2 | DEN | 12 | 7 | 98 | 0 | 16.8 |
| Washington avg | 9.0 | 6.0 | 90.5 | 0.5 | 18.1 | |
| Colts WR3 avg | 4.0 | 3.0 | 49.0 | 0.0 | 7.9 | |
| Difference | -5.0 | -3.0 | -41.5 | -0.5 | -10.2 | |
| Projected as WR3 | 11.6 | 7.8 | 116.9 | 0.6 | 19.5 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Washington averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
