How DJ Moore should do vs the RamsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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

What is this table?

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

Compare against picks which group of Rams 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 DJ Moore will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

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

Projected is DJ Moore's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Rams 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 Moore 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 · DJ MooreLow confidence · 14.0 proj ptsOut
  • DJ Moore averages 21.0 PPR points over 1 game (recent-weighted 21.0) and has played as the team's WR1.
  • The Rams have allowed 18.0 points to WR1s over 1 game (+6% vs league). The model applies 25% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +2% adjustment.
  • Last season's average (10.1) is blended in at 67% weight because this season's sample is small.
  • Injury report: Out. The projection assumes the player plays.
  • Projection: 14.0 points.
  • For reference, a typical weekly starter-level WR scores about 11.8 and a top-tier one about 20.8.
  • Confidence is low: too few games for either the player or the defense. Use this as a rough lean, not a lock.
  • A statistical model from box scores, Vegas lines, weather and injury tags. It cannot see role changes or in-game events.
Prediction & chance to scoreDJ Moore vs the Rams

Prediction for DJ Moore

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

If DJ Moore plays as
14.0
projected PPR points

I predict about 14.0 points for DJ Moore if playing as a WR1. DJ Moore has averaged 21.0 over 1 game, and the Rams have given up 18.0 to WR1s (+6% vs the league average of 17.0).

How this projection is built

1. The player. DJ Moore scored: Wk 1 21.0. Average 21.0; weighted toward recent games it is 13.8.

2. The defense. Over 1 game, the Rams allowed 18.0 points to their opponent's WR1. The league average for that slot is 17.0, so that is +6%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 1 defensive game, only 25% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +2% adjustment (x1.02).

4. Result. 13.8 x 1.02 = 14.0. 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 DJ Moore is to reach it as a WR1.

42%
chance of 14+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (14.0) 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 8.4 points, leaning on DJ Moore'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 14.

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%.

InsightsPlain-English takeaways from the table

  • WR1s scored a touchdown in 1 of 1 games (100%).
  • Small sample: only 1 game so far. Treat these numbers as directional, not settled.
