How Tyler Warren should do vs the BengalsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Bengals, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Tyler Warren has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Bengals 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 Tyler Warren will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Bengals avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Tyler Warren's own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Tyler Warren usually produces.
Projected is Tyler Warren's recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Bengals 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 Warren averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Start / Sit · Tyler WarrenGood confidence · 13.6 proj pts7/10 start
- Tyler Warren averages 12.6 PPR points over 6 games (recent-weighted 12.3) and has played as the team's TE1.
- The Bengals have allowed 12.5 points to TE1s over 7 games (+19% vs league). The model applies 70% of that gap because the sample is small, giving a +13% adjustment.
- Last season's average (11.1) is blended in at 25% weight because this season's sample is small.
- Projection: 13.6 points.
- For reference, a typical weekly starter-level TE scores about 13.5 and a top-tier one about 19.5.

Prediction & chance to scoreTyler Warren vs the Bengals
Prediction for Tyler Warren
Nobody knows which slot Tyler Warren will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Bengals.
I predict about 13.6 points for Tyler Warren if playing as a TE1. Tyler Warren has averaged 12.6 over 6 games, and the Bengals have given up 12.5 to TE1s (+19% vs the league average of 10.5).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Tyler Warren scored: Wk 1 10.3, Wk 2 14.4, Wk 3 14.7, Wk 4 9.1, Wk 5 21.4, Wk 8 5.8. Average 12.6; weighted toward recent games it is 12.0.
2. The defense. Over 7 games, the Bengals allowed 12.5 points to their opponent's TE1. The league average for that slot is 10.5, so that is +19%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 7 defensive games, only 70% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a +13% adjustment (x1.13).
4. Result. 12.0 x 1.13 = 13.6. 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 Tyler Warren is to reach it as a TE1.
Why this percentage?
The projection (13.6) 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 5.5 points, leaning on Tyler Warren's own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical TE 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 14.
With only 6 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%.
