QB CIN
Week 3 · PPR
Start or sit Joe Burrow?
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
#13 QB projection this week — comfortable start.
Start call: Joe Burrow projects for 16.0 PPR points this week, ranked #13 among QBs by our projection model. @PIT is a soft matchup for QBs — the model applies a +10% swing to his projection. Vegas posts the total at 46.5 — 102% of the 45.6 league average for week 3.
