◆ What the average was hiding

Small sample: Too few games on one side (1) to tell whether the 17.3-PPG gap is real — a small-sample hint, not a finding.

In games with allen, Cook averaged 18.8 PPG1 more than the 17.8 PPG season line your draft board shows.

Green = that defense allowed the most fantasy points to RBs last season, red = the fewest. Matchup is a tiebreaker, not a verdict — it moves a close call, not a clear one.
