Toxins are situational factors that adjust our projections. Think of them as context-aware modifiers — matchup advantages, weather effects, or injury concerns.

Example Toxin for Vince
CB1 Shadow-2.1 pts68% confidence

Vince is expected to face the opponent's #1 corner, who has held WRs to below-average production this season.

Delta (±points)

How much the toxin adjusts the projection. Negative means reduction, positive means boost.

Confidence (%)

How certain we are this factor applies. 70%+ is high confidence, meaning strong historical evidence.

The Stats tab shows standard NFL statistics pulled from our database. These are the classic stats you'd see on any sports site.

Season Totals

Cumulative stats for each season — yards, touchdowns, receptions, etc. Position-specific columns (QBs see passing, RBs see rushing).

Career Totals

Lifetime statistics across all seasons in our database. Great for understanding a player's overall production history.

📊 Stats vs Analytics

Stats show raw production (yards, TDs). Analytics show our projection accuracy and badges. Use both together — stats tell you what happened, analytics tell you how predictable it was.
