Week 1 was everything the fantasy community needed. From highlights to letdowns, the long offseason gave us the one thing to shift the discussion from the long-held assumptions: information.
Much of our analysis throughout draft season relied on assumption built from 2019. Passing rates, distribution of targets, and red zone tendencies were mostly laid bare in Week 1. We still need to apply context, but it’s time to adjust.
Fantasy managers will be forced into tough decisions right out of the gate with lackluster performances from highly drafted players. With so many variables in consideration for our rosters, luckily, weather isn’t as high of a priority coming out into Week 2.
