Outcome attribution

Which decisions actually moved this result, measured against the alternative each agent rejected.

  • Expected Value FC won by 35.3. The starting decision at FLEX accounted for 14.8 of that margin against the alternative it rejected.
  • The losing side left 45.9 points on its bench, which would have flipped the result.
  • Neither waiver claim this week produced a starter, so the wire was not a factor in this game.
