CRUNCHING THE NUMBERS: ADJUSTMENTS TO WEEKLY UPDATE STATS
Cincinnati Offensive Line Grade (5.6) vs. Carolina Front Seven (6.3) = -0.7 in the trenches
Carolina Offensive Line (5.7) vs. Cincinnati Front Seven (4.6) = 1.1 adjustments to running averages
Cincinnati QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (6.3) + OL (5.6) - Carolina F7 (6.3) - SEC (5.8) = -0.02
Carolina QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (5.8) + OL (5.7) - Cincinnati F7 (4.6) - SEC (6.3) = 0.06
These adjustments will not always apply completely, such as in cases where QBs have high completion percentages already and get more yard rewards for strong adjustments instead and smaller (7%) percentage boost. Max 15%. WR collective grades increase .5 for 25+ catches in a week IRL in updates. Max OL/F7 difference for RB averages +/- 1.5yd ave.
