INSIGHT

Jefferson's Production Problem Is Contextual

  • Justin Jefferson has totaled just 37 yards over the last three weeks, highlighting severe target issues.
  • Low output reflects quarterback and scheme problems, not only receiver talent.
ADVICE

Avoid Waller When He Lines Up Like A WR

  • Prefer Dawson Knox/Schultz-type tight ends (Schultz) over Darren Waller when Waller's role is receiver-like.
  • Avoid tight ends who rarely line up inline in matchups that favor traditional TE looks.
ADVICE

Start Burrow For Reliability

  • Start Joe Burrow over Dak when choosing reliability over matchup variance in championship settings.
  • Trust proven QB skill rather than matchup upside with unproven passers.
