The Broncos have been one quarterback away from competitiveness since Peyton Manning’s retirement. They fill this much needed void with Russell Wilson. Though his 2021 season was marred with injury, Wilson was still chucking the rock when healthy. Wilson’s 5.5 Deep Ball Attempts Per Game (No. 1) and 10 Air Yards Per Attempt (No. 6) support this.
I’ve poured over the AFC South this offseason and will now bring you my thoughts on the team’s records, best fantasy players, a potential breakout, and an overall view on how the season will go. This is a tough division that unfortunately has to play the AFC West this season, which is good for fantasy but not winning. So without further ado, let’s take a look at some predictions for the 2022 season!
Josh Allen attempts to lead the Bills prolific offense to an opening night victory against the defending champs. He has at his disposal a duo of Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis who’ve compiled 31 touchdowns over the last two seasons. They patched arguably their only offensive hole this offseason with the drafting of James Cook, who will immediately see a fantasy relevant role.
The defending champs are undefeated on opening day under head coach Sean McVay. With Allen Robinson now in Matthew Stafford’s arsenal, this offense is not going to skip a beat from 2021. In fact, they’ll only be sharper. Cam Akers returns to the lineup fully recovered. With a rejuvenated offense and an undermanned Bills secondary, the Rams are in a great spot to keep the streak alive.
The preseason is now over. The NFL season is just around the corner, and you may be wondering how exactly is each AFC West team looking as we charge straight toward Week 1 like a runaway train?! The following article are my collection of thoughts as to where each team sits as they end the preseason, and my predictions for how things will shake out within the most tumultuous division in all of football! Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
Training camp is in full swing so it’s time to check in on how the AFC South is looking. How is Derrick Henry looking? Is Matt Ryan gelling with the new organization? What is the Texans offense looking like? Is Trevor Lawrence on the right path? All of these questions will be answered and more.
This guide is meant to de-mystify PlayerProfiler’s highlighted metrics and help you understand what drives running back success in fantasy football. The metrics are split into six sections, which I’ll cover individually: Opportunity, Productivity, Advanced Receiving, Efficiency, College Production & Workout Metrics, and Formation-Specific.
Many analysts may disagree on conclusions from an NFL prospect’s film. They also disagree or how to interpret their production. The Breakout Finder attempts to eliminate bias. The app uses machine learning to predict how likely a prospect is to have a prominent fantasy season upon their selection (or lack thereof) in the NFL Draft.
It’s Training Camp season in the NFL, and I’m currently writing this article in the best shape of my life! I’ve got my fingers on the pulse of the NFC South, and below I have all relevant information that’s come out of each team’s camp
The Jets’ offense is the most improved unit in the NFL. They filled key needs for Robert Saleh’s zone-run style offense. The receiving corps, tight end room, and offensive line consistent of multiple talented players. Wilson showed incredible arm talent during his few stretches of solid play during his rookie year. The Success of this team is directly correlated with Wilson’s ability to learn the game and speed up his processing post-snap.
Shadow Rate is “the percentage of cover snaps a defensive back is assigned to a particular receiver on the play as opposed to the side of the formation.”
The leader in 2021 was J.C. Jackson, then of the New England Patriots. His Shadow Rate was 59.6.
Being tasked with going everywhere their man would go does not mean that quarterbacks were afraid to target these players, of course. Nor does it mean that they were able to erase all receivers from the stat sheet.
