Rachaad White Keeps His Hot Streak Going Against Jacksonville: The Wrong Read, Week 16 – Part 2
Image Credit: Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire. Pictured: Rachaad White.

The Wrong Read has had many lives — first as a reflection on insights from the RotoViz podcasts; then as a freeform space for exploring a variety of metrics and strategies. It will likely continue in that latter function, but at least for now — in season — it’s an in-depth matchup lookahead article.

Each week I’ll gather advanced stats from our tools — mainly the Advanced Team Stat Explorer — to paint a picture of the upcoming week and offer some thoughts on how the games might unfold. My interest is in how the games will impact fantasy teams, and as such I’m looking mainly at the metrics that I think can help us predict how different teams and players will (or won’t) score fantasy points.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  • Trevor Lawrence is listed as questionable but did travel with the team to Tampa Bay. Jacksonville would especially like to have Lawrence under center as the Buccaneers are exploitable through the air.
  • Although no team allows a higher success rate on rushing plays than Tampa Bay, only two allow a lower boom rate on rushing plays. Their peripherals suggest the latter ranking may be more indicative of their defensive talent.
  • Zay Jones is also questionable, and if he can’t play the team will rely on Calvin Ridley and rookie Parker Washington. Washington is coming off a game in which he earned six targets, but turned them into only 12 yards. That said, he has the No. 2 matchup according to the alignment data.
  • Jacksonville presents a tougher passing matchup than rushing matchup, but has not been strong in either phase recently. Given the Jaguars’ ability to put pressure on opposing QBs, Tampa Bay may opt to get the ball in Rachaad White’s hands as quickly as possible. White has either gained over 100 yards or scored a TD in every game since Week 8.

Arizona Cardinals at Chicago Bears

4 Running Back Prospects Whose College Production Points to Outsized Returns, and 4 Potential Red Flags: 2025 Backfield Dominator Ratings

Collegiate production is still among the most undervalued measurements for running back prospects. In large part this is because we lack many good ways to measure it. Both rushing and receiving numbers depend on scheme, personnel, offensive and defensive strength, and a host of other factors. This can make many of the raw counting stats misleading. The solution is to control for these factors as…...
