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