Prediction for KC Concepcion
Nobody knows which slot KC Concepcion will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Steelers.
I predict about 6.1 points for KC Concepcion if playing as a WR2. KC Concepcion has averaged 8.0 over 2 games, and the Steelers have given up 3.3 to WR2s (-60% vs the league average of 8.3).
How this projection is built
1. The player. KC Concepcion scored: Wk 1 7.8, Wk 2 8.2. Average 8.0; weighted toward recent games it is 8.0.
2. The defense. Over 2 games, the Steelers allowed 3.3 points to their opponent's WR2. The league average for that slot is 8.3, so that is -60%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 2 defensive games, only 40% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -24% adjustment (x0.76).
4. Result. 8.0 x 0.76 = 6.1. 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 KC Concepcion is to reach it as a WR2.
Why this percentage?
The projection (6.1) 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 3.7 points, leaning on KC Concepcion'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 6.
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%.
Insights
- top-3 WRs have averaged 1.7 receptions, 29.5 receiving yards and 0.0 receiving TDs per player-game against the Steelers across 2 games.
- The Steelers allow 14.1 PPR points to the position per game, -53% versus the league average of 29.8 (ranked 32 of 32, where 1 is most generous). That is a tough matchup.
- Outlier: Week 2, Romeo Doubs (12.6 pts, 96 yds) sits far above the other games and pulls the averages up. Average with it vs without it: pts 4.7 vs 3.1; yds 29.5 vs 16.2. The table above keeps the raw averages.
- 1 of 6 player-games reached 10+ PPR points. Scores range from 1.5 to 12.6 (median 3.3).
- top-3 WRs scored a touchdown in 0 of 6 player-games (0%).
- Small sample: only 2 games so far. Treat these numbers as directional, not settled.

KC Concepcion's stats vs the Steelers
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Steelers, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game KC Concepcion has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Steelers 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 KC Concepcion will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Steelers avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus KC Concepcion's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than KC Concepcion usually produces.
Projected is KC Concepcion's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Steelers 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 | JAX | 5 | 4 | 43 | 0 | 7.8 |
| 2 | TB | 6 | 6 | 28 | 0 | 8.2 |
| Concepcion avg | 5.5 | 5.0 | 35.5 | 0.0 | 8.0 | |
| Steelers Top 3 avg | 2.7 | 1.7 | 29.5 | 0.0 | 4.7 | |
| Difference | -2.8 | -3.3 | -6.0 | +0.0 | -3.3 | |
| Projected | 4.2 | 3.8 | 27.0 | 0.0 | 6.1 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Concepcion averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
