2022 PSDG: Strength of Schedule 2022 - The WRs (Preview)
John Cooney - 7/8/2022

Winning in fantasy football and maximizing the weekly matchups go hand-in-hand. Fanballing coaches and GMs that are consistently successful, year-in-year-out, play the matchups... the RIGHT matchups! A key vehicle for identifying advantageous matchups, or avoiding the unattractive one, is Strength Of Schedule, or SOS. A fantasy football Strength of Schedule for offensive players must account for an opposing defense’s ability to defend air space in the passing game as well as effectiveness versus the run. Ranking a defense by sorting the overall passing or rushing yards allowed over a season is a traditional start, but those cumbersome and far-too-inclusive stats are far from finished products or acute accuracy.

Testimonials

"I began using FFM in the late 1990s. For 20+ years they were an extremely valuable resource, as I enjoyed great success in my league during that period. Unfortunately, my league came to an end during the Covid years, and I stopped subscribing to FFM. After a year without Fantasy Football, I started looking into online sports betting and quickly realized FFM could again become a valuable source of information for prop bets on individual players. I resumed my subscription with FFM and have not looked back. FFM is clearly a dual threat; they can severely increase your odds of success in both fantasy leagues as well as prop betting. I almost feel guilty with the tremendous returns I get from such a modest investment in FFM."

"After being cheap for a couple seasons - and having the results to show for it - I subscribed again last year and promptly won my league. You guys do an excellent job. I love the Tiering approach - it really makes it easier to figure out the best way to make good value picks."
