Player Projections

Player Projection V2 is now built around simple milestone probabilities. Instead of entering a sportsbook line, see the model's chance of a player reaching 20+, 30+, 40+ yards and beyond automatically.

ALL CURRENT-WEEK GAMESStandalone games and the full weekly schedule are included.
MILESTONE RESEARCH
Touchdown Probability ResearchModel probability supported by scoring history, red-zone opportunities, opponent allowance and team environment. Open any player for a position-specific TD Opportunity Profile.

Stat Milestone Probability BoardProjection V2 converts each player's Model Fair Line and volatility into automatic milestone probabilities. Yardage markets move in 10-yard steps; receptions move one catch at a time.
How to use milestone projectionsNo sportsbook input is needed. Each tile shows the model's estimated chance of reaching at least that stat threshold. Example: 60+ receiving yards at 72% means the model estimates a 72% chance of 60 or more receiving yards. Strong/Elite research rows automatically flag one 70%+ milestone for accountability tracking. QB rushing requires at least four current games plus stable rushing volume before it can become an automatically tracked signal.
