The Read

three league signals

Doubs Takes Over Green Bay’s Air
41% ▁▄▅█
Romeo Doubs’ involvement has climbed four straight weeks, reaching 41% of Green Bay’s air yards and 21% of its red-zone targets. Watch whether that concentrated role holds against Pittsburgh, especially near the goal line.
The Board Still Finds Wide Gaps
70 ██▄▂▁▁▃▁
Our number sits at least 10 yards from the market on 70 players, keeping both overs and unders in play across the board. The count has eased from earlier in the season, but this remains a week with plenty of meaningful disagreement.
A Slate Short on Toss-Ups
4 █▄▄▃▂▁▄▁
Only 4 games sit inside three points, continuing the season’s broader move away from tightly priced matchups. Watch how quickly the larger favorites take control and whether that changes passing volume late.

Trend vs Price

where the number and the market disagree

1. Daniel Jones Market Trails Passing Trend

The trend Jones’ recent passing work points upward: his weighted form is 243 yards, while his last 8 sit at 248. The dome adds another favorable piece for a quarterback whose recent production already clears the market’s expectation.
The price The market posts 234.2 passing yards against our number of 272.9.
The lean Lean over Jones’ passing yards.

2. Kimani Vidal Workload Clashes With Market

The trend Vidal owns the top backfield position, and 57 rushing attempts over the last 4 games support the possibility of volume. The concern is how the carries are divided: recent backfield competition pulls his outlook down despite that starting role.
The price The market asks for 53.3 rushing yards, while our number is 32.1.
The lean Lean under Vidal’s rushing yards.

3. Mason Taylor Role Outruns Production

The trend Taylor’s lead depth-chart position and recent target competition give him a route to steady involvement. Production has not followed, however, with 29.7 receiving yards across his last 8 forming the strongest drag on the projection.
The price The market sits at 40.5 receiving yards versus our number of 23.9.
The lean Lean under Taylor’s receiving yards.

The Board

every call · our number vs the market

How to read it: the grey track is the realistic range for each call. The dot is our number, the black tick is the market line, and the connector between them is the disagreement — green when we lean over, amber when we lean under.

Trend Gabriel has produced 126 weighted passing yards, with his last 4 at 132 and last 8 at 109.
Matchup New England is the setting, but Gabriel’s recent passing windows are what drive this projection.

88.7
56.5
20.2
161.1
Trend Henry’s weighted rushing output sits at 83.9, backed by the lead role and recent carry control.

80.5
50
16.7
145.5
Trend Barkley remains the lead back, yet his season rushing mark is only 52.7 yards.
Matchup The Giants frame the week, while Barkley’s season output and current carry split set the expectation.
Our call A market line of 80.5 requires more than our 50.0-yard number supports.

67
41.4
16.7
121
Trend McCaffrey holds the top role with 71.1 weighted rushing yards and a 66.4 season mark.

50.2
32.5
4.9
120.1
Trend Kamara’s 48.9 season rushing mark offers support, but recent carry competition pulls the other way.

Red-zone targets 21% His share of the throws that become touchdowns.
