Yesterday, I was going through some fantasy football stuff with my buddy, and we got into this discussion about Kyren Williams and D’Andre Swift. You know, like, who’s better to have on your team and all that. It’s week 13, and we’re both trying to fine-tune our lineups, so it’s kind of a big deal.
I started looking into it, checking out some recent articles and tools. I found this one that’s supposed to help you decide who to start. It’s pretty cool, gives you advice based on, like, data and stuff. So I put in Williams and Swift, just to see what it would say. It takes a bit, crunching the numbers or whatever, and then it spits out who it thinks is the better pick for the week.
I also read some articles. There’s this expert, I think his name was Michael Fabiano, who was talking about running backs for Week 1. He’s got a whole list of who to start and who to sit. It’s interesting to see what these pros think, you know? It’s not just about who’s the bigger name, but who’s likely to actually get you points.
Digging Into Their Stats
Then, I got into their stats.
- Like, how many yards they’re getting per game, how many carries they have, all that. I saw that Clyde Edwards-Helaire, another guy, had like 20 yards on five carries in one game. That’s not bad, right? It’s all these little pieces of info that start to paint a picture.
I’m no expert, but it’s fun to get into it. Trying to figure out who’s going to have a good game based on their past performance, who they’re playing against, all of that. It’s like a puzzle. And honestly, it makes watching the games more exciting, because you’ve got a stake in it, you know? You’re not just watching, you’re, like, analyzing.
My friend and I, we went back and forth on it for a while. It’s not just about picking the right players, but also about the bragging rights. If my guy does better than his, I get to rub it in a little, haha. It’s all in good fun, though. At the end of the day, it’s just a game, but it’s a fun way to stay connected with friends and get more into football.
So, yeah, that’s what I’ve been up to. Trying to master this whole fantasy football thing. It’s a learning process, but it’s cool. And hey, maybe next season I’ll actually be good at it!
