CRUNCHING THE NUMBERS: ADJUSTMENTS TO WEEKLY UPDATE STATS
Cleveland Offensive Line Grade (6.7) vs. New Orleans Front Seven (6.1) = 0.6 in the trenches
New Orleans Offensive Line (6.5) vs. Cleveland Front Seven (5.8) = 0.7 adjustments to running averages
Cleveland QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (6.8) + OL (6.7) - New Orleans F7 (6.1) - SEC (5.8) = 0.15
New Orleans QB Completion % Impacts (x.1): WR (6.3) + OL (6.5) - Cleveland F7 (5.8) - SEC (5.9) = 0.11
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.
