Notes from the Highest Projected Games

The King of Fantasy Points for this week is Derrick Henry, who scored 45.6 points on Saturday. All hail the King!!!! I got King Henryed in my main home league this week. I hope anyone else facing him fared better than I did. Our highest projected Clutch Games rankings this week were slightly lower than expected, but we did manage to hit on the top four games. This week, there were 4 QBs, 5 RBs, 3 WRs, and 0 TEs who scored 25+ fantasy points. It was the second week in a row without a TE for that metric. Outside of the top four projected highest games, only the Patriots/Jets game had more than 5 Clutch Players (6)!

Featured the QB1 (Purdy), RB3 (McCaffrey), WR2 (Olave), WR2 (Burden III), WR3 (Godwin Jr.), TE2 (Loveland), TE3 (Tonges), and TE5 (Dulcich)

As you can tell by the featured list, this was an off week for a few players. Is Theo Wease Jr. a real player? Feels like a Madden-created character to me.

NFL Week 17 Monday Night Football, Rams (-7) at Falcons

Tonight’s game features the Rams versus the Falcons in Atlanta. The Rams are gunning for the number 1 seed in the NFC, and the Falcons have already been eliminated. At 11-4, the Rams need a win tonight to remain in contention with the Seahawks and 49ers for the division and the number 1 seed. The best Clutch Performers in this game are: Puka Nacua and Bijan Robinson at 93%, Kyren Williams at 80%, Drake London at 70%, and Matthew Stafford at 67% Clutch Ratios. All five of those players are projected for a Clutch Game tonight.

There are 6 expected Clutch Players based on the Consistency Reports: Nacua, Robinson, Williams, London, Stafford, and Kyle Pitts. The Rams can’t let another heartbreaker get away from them. I think Sean McVay has his foot on the gas from the get-go, and a Rams blowout is incoming: 34-17, Rams.
