Explaining the Ravens RBs and the Browns awful defense

Every week our trusty analysts here at Pro Football Focus put together a summary of the specific matchups from the week that was. I start my research by reading these summaries, but I don’t stop there.

Next to each team I write down at least one question, something that I want to investigate, to understand.

This week I’m letting you in on my process and going over a time share situation and a matchup evaluation, letting statistical evidence lead you to sleepers you can count on. Together we can dive deeper into the week that was on our way to the fantasy football championship.

Our own Wes Huber wasn’t overly impressed with the two-touchdown-and-one-interception performance that carried Joe Flacco and the Baltimore Ravens to victory. Flacco struggled, only completing three of his nine attempts that went for nine or more yards downfield. And he only completed 45.0 percent of his pass attempts while averaging 3.8 yards per attempt when not blitzed.
