CRUNCHING THE NUMBERS: ADJUSTMENTS TO WEEKLY UPDATE STATS
New Orleans Offensive Line Grade (5.8) vs. Carolina Front Seven (5.2) = 0.6 in the trenches
Carolina Offensive Line (6.3) vs. New Orleans Front Seven (5.8) = 0.5 adjustments to running averages
New Orleans QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (6.5) + OL (5.8) - Carolina F7 (5.2) - SEC (6.0) = 0.11
Carolina QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (5.6) + OL (6.3) - New Orleans F7 (5.8) - SEC (6) = 0.01
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.
