vs Dallas Cowboys offense

Projection 2.0 pts · Good confidence · #31 of 32 defenses

IND defenses average 2.8 fantasy points over 8 games (2.0 sacks and 0.5 takeaways per game); blended with the league average of 5.7 to 3.5.
The DAL offense has given up 3.0 points per game to defenses vs a league average of 5.7, so 73% of that gap is applied (x0.66).
Opposing offense injuries (x1.02): Opposing top target George Pickens is questionable. 1 opposing offensive lineman is out or questionable (Smith).
Game environment (x0.84): Vegas total 51.5, implied 23.0 points for IND (league avg 22.6); Underdog by 5.5: likely to pass more while trailing; Indoors: no weather effect, a small boost for passing and kicking.
Chance of a 10+ point game: 3%. A statistical model, not injury or lineup news.
