How Brandon McManus should do vs the CardinalsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Cardinals, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Brandon McManus has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Cardinals opponents to line them up with: the best K they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Brandon McManus will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Cardinals avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Brandon McManus's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Brandon McManus usually produces.
Projected is Brandon McManus's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Cardinals 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 McManus averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
