Every game on the board ranked by projected total, so stacking priorities read from the top down. Each card carries the model total against the posted market total, the implied points for each side, win probability and the spread, then the top projected players on both offenses.
Salaries and projections read DraftKings first and FanDuel second, stacked around a slash. An n/a means that player is not on the other site’s main board.
Implied points per side matter more than the game total for lineup building, because you are rostering one team. A game total of fifty splits very differently at a pick em spread than it does at a touchdown.
NFL Game By Game Breakdown: Week 8
All 11 games on the Week 8 board, sorted by projected total so stacking priorities read from the top down. The highest projected environment is Ravens at Bills at 54.9 points. Depth charts and snap shares are projected rather than confirmed, so treat the player lists as the model's expectation and check inactives before lock. Salaries and projections read DraftKings first and FanDuel second, and an n/a means the player is not on that site's main board.

How to read this page. Model Total is the FTA projection for the game, and the cell beside it is that figure against the posted market total. Proj Score splits it into implied points per side, which is the number that should drive which team you stack rather than the game total. The defence line on each pane is how many points that side is projected to allow, so a soft badge is an offence facing a generous defence. Ownership is projected, not final, and depth charts are the model's expectation rather than confirmed usage.
