The best and worst schedules for the ROS (1 Viewer)

[shadyridr]

I crunched some numbers for the remainder of the season using our league's scoring system (0.5 ppr, 6 pts per pass TD) and have come up with the top 7 and bottom 7 remaining schedules based on fantasy points allowed for weeks 11-16. FYI I also checked playoffs only and the #s didnt change much so didnt bother listing them. Here are the results by position:

QB top 7:

HOU SD BUF NO NYG NYJ CAR

QB bottom 7:

CIN PHI NE DET MIA JAX GB

Comments: Ugh my QBs in one league are Stafford and Bortles. Rodgers has the worst remaining schedule

RB top 7:

CAR LA KC TB NYJ CLE BUF

RB bottom 7:

DEN NO DET GB MIN SEA WSH

Comments: Does Gurley finally pay off? Rob Kelley has the volume but horrible schedule. Starks not a savior probably

WR top 7:

WSH NO DEN CAR LA IND SD

WR bottom 7:

HOU ARI BAL SEA CIN GB KC

Comments: Kind of weird, HOU has the top passing schedule but a bottom 7 WR schedule. So much for Nuk's great schedule. GB continues to show up in the bottom.

TE top 7:

BUF SD PIT CHI HOU NYG MIN

TE bottom 7:

TB SEA NE ATL DEN GB MIA

Comments: Gates, Green, CJ, and Miller could be top TEs. Other than Gronk and Jimmy, nobody of note in the bottom 7 to worry about. Hey there's GB again!

DEF top 7:

NE MIA SEA ATL NO SF SD

DEF bottom 7:

BUF TB LA ARI NYG CAR BAL

Comments: As mentioned in the streaming thread, NE & MIA both have amazing schedules. SD should also be held through the bye. CAR can be dropped

Thoughts?

Great thread, thanks for putting this info together. 

Texans (Hopkins) having a bottom 7 WR schedule confuses me though. There's not a single matchup that scares me on paper.

Confused me too. Guess they give up a lot of damage to TEs and RBs in the passing game.

Thanks Shady.  Nice job!  The defense rankings are big to me as looks like I can go pretty deep in the playoffs in an FFPC league.  Currently sitting in 61st place & don't think you can drop/add after week 13.

Note:  did not mean to brag as my other teams in 4 leagues are basically cannon fodder.

Good info on the DEF. Miami is in my wire - I may pick them up if for no reason than to play keep-away.

Love it

Great info here! A much needed thread for teams in the fantasy play off hunt, I'm surprised to not find more of this in the paid content.
Thanks Shady and keep on keeping up.

Saint / Bucs 2x in the last 3 weeks is nice. 

signed,

Brees, Thomas, Evans, Snead, (Ingram/Hightower) owner.

NO defense is interesting.  They looked halfway decent on Thursday night.

NO defense is interesting.  They looked halfway decent on Thursday night.

They looked kinda dominant - but at least 2 sacks were because Newton displayed no vision whatsoever and literally ran into the sack after not seeing open targets. 

So it's hard to say whether the Saints D turned a corner or Newton is regressing. Maybe a bit of both, but they certainly have more familiarity with Cam than team's outside of their division.
