Welcome to the Match-up Report. It is a one-stop-shop for getting key info on every match-up for the week and exactly where the strengths and weaknesses are for each team. Exploiting those weaknesses are how you can dominate your season-long and DFS contests throughout the year. Below you will see a key that explains what each stat abbreviation is and what it is meant to show along with what the rankings mean. You will also see an explanation of the color-coding that is included in each match-up breakdown. The ranks are based on games to this point and you will see them change throughout the weeks as they play more games and have more differences in outcomes.
