3. Assumptions and methodology

We simulate each game 4,000 times, play by play, using league play results from this season and historical, adjusted for each team's play-calling tendency. Each player's share of carries and targets comes from his usage this season, with last season counted at a lower weight, and a quarterback's passing line is scaled to his own pass volume. When a player is ruled out, his carries go to teammates at his position and his targets are spread across the offense. Players ruled out on the injury report or not active on the roster are removed. Projected numbers are averages across the simulations. Team passing yards are net of sacks; a quarterback's are not.

Fantasy points: 1 per reception; 1 per 25 passing yards; 4 per passing TD; 1 per 10 rushing/receiving yards; 6 per rushing/receiving TD; -2 per interception or lost fumble. Calculated from unrounded projections. Excludes two-point conversions, return/recovery TDs and bonuses, which are not modeled for individual players.

3. Assumptions and methodology

We simulate each game 4,000 times, play by play, using league play results from this season and historical, adjusted for each team's play-calling tendency. Each player's share of carries and targets comes from his usage this season, with last season counted at a lower weight, and a quarterback's passing line is scaled to his own pass volume. When a player is ruled out, his carries go to teammates at his position and his targets are spread across the offense. Players ruled out on the injury report or not active on the roster are removed. Projected numbers are averages across the simulations. Team passing yards are net of sacks; a quarterback's are not.

Fantasy points: 1 per reception; 1 per 25 passing yards; 4 per passing TD; 1 per 10 rushing/receiving yards; 6 per rushing/receiving TD; -2 per interception or lost fumble. Calculated from unrounded projections. Excludes two-point conversions, return/recovery TDs and bonuses, which are not modeled for individual players.

3. Assumptions and methodology

We simulate each game 4,000 times, play by play, using league play results from this season and historical, adjusted for each team's play-calling tendency. Each player's share of carries and targets comes from his usage this season, with last season counted at a lower weight, and a quarterback's passing line is scaled to his own pass volume. When a player is ruled out, his carries go to teammates at his position and his targets are spread across the offense. Players ruled out on the injury report or not active on the roster are removed. Projected numbers are averages across the simulations. Team passing yards are net of sacks; a quarterback's are not.

Fantasy points: 1 per reception; 1 per 25 passing yards; 4 per passing TD; 1 per 10 rushing/receiving yards; 6 per rushing/receiving TD; -2 per interception or lost fumble. Calculated from unrounded projections. Excludes two-point conversions, return/recovery TDs and bonuses, which are not modeled for individual players.

Player rows count games where the listed player started and had a season average (RB2: one of the team's top two backs by snaps).

2026 rows count games where the listed player played, since 2026 starts are not yet in the data.

RMSE
Typical miss, in the stat's own units, with big misses counted more. Lower is better; the lower of the two is in bold.
Bias
Projection minus actual, on average. Negative means the projection ran low.
Season average
The player's average in earlier games this season (first game: last season with the same team). For teams, the team's earlier games.
Lines shown are model output and may move. All results are model projections, not guarantees.
