The headings in the Risk section are useful for explaining the range of outcomes that is likely for each kicker.
Err: The likelihood of results being far from the projected number. 4thD: A modeled estimate of the # of 4th downs that the team will attempt. Missed: A modeled estimate of the # kicks likely to be missed, based on many game factors including weather. Ceil: The likeliest outcome above the main projection. Fl: The likeliest outcome below the main projection. DD%: The modeled probability of the kicker scoring Double Digits (10+). LD%: The modeled probability of the kicker scoring Low Digits (0-5). |

Is this player/team a likely top-8 hold rest of season?
Hold? |
Err. This is an estimate of confidence in the projection. A lower error means less deviation is expected — this should mean a higher floor but also a lower ceiling. | 4thD | Missed | Ceil | Fl | DD% | LD% | FG | XP |

‘Strength of Schedule (SoS) forecasts the difficulty for a team’s, for future weeks. These charts are based on multi-dimensional predictive models, which makes them much more reliable than plain “fantasy points allowed” that you might find elsewhere, if you’re making your roster decisions based on opponents.
Matchup Bonuses can help you predict if a fantasy player will score more or less than usual. We first model the team "Baseline", which represents the fantasy points expected from all team players at the given position. The rest of the table indicates the weekly deviations from this baseline-- i.e. the "matchup bonus". The AVG column therefore represents the rest-of-season strength of schedule.
