WHY THIS PROJECTION MOVES
Matthew Stafford is tagged as starter for LA. The page uses team-leading QB projection volume in the current weekly board, then layers in a middle-tier prior matchup with SF ranked #19 vs QB and allowing 17.5 fantasy points per game so the public read is tied to this player's actual weekly situation.
The football logic is simple: role drives opportunity, opponent context shapes efficiency, and game environment affects how often a player can reach the stat that matters for fantasy and prop research.
ACCURACY FRAMING
In the 2025 hold-out test, the WinForge passing-yards model explained 45% of the variance in actual QB passing yards.
R² measures variance explained, not hit rate. Read the accuracy ledger and methodology for context.
UNLOCK THE FULL PRO VIEW
Pro adds the complete simulation view, market comparison tools, probability research, and portfolio sizing context inside the app. The public page intentionally shows only the median teaser.
