How Atlas rates them

points a game against an average NFL team · 18th of 28 with a card this week
Offense
−0.0
team +1.6 · D.Jones −1.6
Defense
−2.0
± 2.5 · points held below average

offense plus defense

Expected starter: D.Jones. −1.6 of that offense is his (± 1.8), and it travels with him: the model rates the quarterback and the team separately and adds them for the game. He is the depth chart's first quarterback unless the injury report lists him out.

The rating is the model's own, after 7 games this season: every team's offense and defense, and every quarterback, are carried from season to season and updated after each game, adjusted for the opponent. The ± is how unsure the model still is. These are the numbers the team's card uses.

A rating is not a recommendation. Atlas publishes its own number beside the market's and grades how much weight it deserves; it never says what to do with either.
