QB BUF
Week 5 · PPR
Start or sit Josh Allen?
The verdict comes from our weekly projection model: last season's opportunity-based xFP/g shrunk toward the position mean, then adjusted for role, injury status, the opponent's fantasy points allowed and the Vegas game total vs the league average.
Start
#4 QB projection this week — comfortable start.
Start call: Josh Allen projects for 18.7 PPR points this week, ranked #4 among QBs by our projection model. @LAR is a neutral matchup for QBs — the model applies a 0% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 53.5 — 113% of the 47.2 league average for week 5.
