Are you ready to sink into the juicy wetness of statistical data? I hope so because I have some career statistics that I'd like to outline now that we have a large sample size of 7.5 years of fantasy football. We talked on the last Robbie Gould podcast about how several owners are approaching the 10,000 point milestone. Expected to be the first one to eclipse that mark, Schweg needs just 43 points to hit the benchmark. Schweg also needs just 34 points scored against him to be the first person to have 10,000 points scored against him. Schweg averages the 2nd-highest scoring games with an average score of 93.93-94.02. The highest scoring game average is held by Terrance, with an average score of 97.17-91.60. Terrance's 97.17 points per game are by far the highest, and the same goes for his average points per season (1,358). But yeah we already know that Terrance is good because he made the playoffs 5 years in a row. The average point differential of 5.57 is the largest in league history as well. Sorry buddy, it's all downhill from here. The worst point differential is held by Jarrett, with an average game score of 88.24-93.60, with Jarrett averaging the lowest points per game overall. However each week that he drops 120 or 140 is increasing this number quickly. If you can quantify luck, it might be in the form of points scored against (although one could argue that forward-thinking trading and waiver manipulation can affect an opponent's output), and with that parenthetical statement, obviously I'm talking about myself! I face opponents scoring a dismal 87.57 points per game, which is a full 1.31 points worse than the next lowest. When you factor in every single game that we have played (this excludes games from Nathan, Dobber, Steve and Jared), the average score is 91.57 - 91.14. It feels right since we have always used the 100 point mark as the measure of success. When scoring 100 points or more, all teams combine for a record of 299-58-2 with a winning percentage of 83.57%. You can usually feel pretty good about getting a win if you score over 100 points, however we have already had 10 games this season with losers scoring triple digits, including losing scores of 134 and 130 points.
Where do all of these points come from you may ask? Why they come from individuals players of course! Here is the deep dive look on how everyone performs across the different positions. These include all games from 2011 through Week 8 of 2018. Some of these rankings may surprise you...
