How Nick Muse should do vs the BearsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Bears, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Nick Muse has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Bears opponents to line them up with: the best TE they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Nick Muse will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Bears avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Nick Muse's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Nick Muse usually produces.
Projected is Nick Muse's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Bears 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7 | SF | 2 | 2 | 2 | 1 | 8.2 |
| Muse avg | 2.0 | 2.0 | 2.0 | 1.0 | 8.2 | |
| Bears TE1 avg | 3.4 | 2.6 | 27.6 | 0.0 | 5.4 | |
| Difference | +1.4 | +0.6 | +25.6 | -1.0 | -2.8 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Muse averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
