What the call rests on
- Sione Vaki: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 12:20 PM ET
- Gavin Bartholomew: Sleeper's projection, last changed Sat, Oct 31, 12:20 PM ET
- Sleeper's projections read Sat, Oct 31, 12:27 PM ET.
- Injury statuses read Sat, Oct 31, 12:27 PM ET, with the projections (hourly). A fresh projection time doesn't mean every status is: game-day inactives, about 90 minutes before kickoff, can come after it.
| Same projections, scored | Vaki | Bartholomew |
|---|---|---|
| PPR | 3.8 | 1.8 |
| Half PPR | 3.3 | 1.4 |
| Standard | 2.9 | 1 |
What could change it before kickoff
- A projection update of 2 points or more in the other direction flips the call; Sleeper keeps adjusting its projections until kickoff, and this page reads them again at most an hour after it last did.
