  • Teammate Hunter Henry (a top target) is questionable.

A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.

How Mack Hollins should do vs the ChiefsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection

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

What is this table?

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

Compare against picks which group of Chiefs 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 Mack Hollins will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.

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

Projected is Mack Hollins's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Chiefs 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 Hollins averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.

  • Mack Hollins averages 9.0 PPR points over 4 games (recent-weighted 9.2) and has played as the team's WR2.
  • The Chiefs have allowed 7.1 points to WR2s over 7 games (-18% vs league). The model applies 70% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a -13% adjustment.

Prediction & chance to scoreMack Hollins vs the Chiefs

Prediction for Mack Hollins

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

If Mack Hollins plays as
7.7
projected PPR points

I predict about 7.7 points for Mack Hollins if playing as a WR2. Mack Hollins has averaged 9.0 over 4 games, and the Chiefs have given up 7.1 to WR2s (-18% vs the league average of 8.8).

How this projection is built

1. The player. Mack Hollins scored: Wk 1 9.1, Wk 2 3.8, Wk 3 14.7, Wk 4 8.3. Average 9.0; weighted toward recent games it is 8.8.

2. The defense. Over 7 games, the Chiefs allowed 7.1 points to their opponent's WR2. The league average for that slot is 8.8, so that is -18%.

3. Trusting small samples less. With 7 defensive games, only 70% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -13% adjustment (x0.87).

4. Result. 8.8 x 0.87 = 7.7. 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 Mack Hollins is to reach it as a WR2.

40%
chance of 8+ PPR points
Why this percentage?

The projection (7.7) 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 4.5 points, leaning on Mack Hollins'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 8.

With only 4 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%.
