Okay, so I’ve been messing around with this fantasy football thing, and man, it’s a real head-scratcher sometimes. This week, I was totally stuck on whether to start Zack Moss or Alexander Mattison. Both seemed like decent options, but I just couldn’t make up my mind.
First, I dug into Mattison’s stats. The dude’s been getting a fair amount of action, especially with his team’s injuries. I saw that in four games where he was the main guy, he averaged like 16.5 carries and 4 targets per game. That’s some solid volume! Plus, he was going up against the Jaguars, who haven’t been great against running backs. They’ve given up the third-most points to opposing RBs and have allowed 100 yards or a TD in almost every game.
Then, I checked out Moss. Now, he’s been in the league for four seasons, but his best fantasy finish was only RB27. Not super impressive. Also, he’s not known for catching passes, and it looked like Chase Brown might steal some of those opportunities.
Making the Decision
So, I started comparing them side-by-side. I used some online tools to look at their projections and stats. It was a close call, but the more I looked, the more Mattison seemed like the better play this week. He just had more going for him – more volume, a better matchup, and a higher projected score.
Finally, I decided to go with Mattison. It felt like the safer bet, and honestly, I was kinda leaning that way from the start.
- Weighed the pros and cons of each player.
- Compared their stats and matchups.
- Used online tools for projections.
- Ultimately chose Mattison due to higher volume and a more favorable matchup.
It’s always tough making these calls, but it’s also part of the fun. You gotta trust your gut, do your research, and hope for the best. Let’s see if this gamble pays off!
