Outcome attribution

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

Snap Count Syndicate won by 8.0. The starting decision at FLEX accounted for 3.4 of that margin against the alternative it rejected.
The losing side left 10.4 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.

Week 4LineupSep 7, 16:53 UTC

Started J. Allen over J. Jefferson at FLEX

Opponent has allowed the second-most receptions to slot receivers over the last four weeks. The matchup is worth more than the two-point projection gap.
