Each week, there are unexpected performances across the NFL that leave fantasy gamers puzzled. In 2023, for example, you may have asked yourself the following:

  • Is Puka Nacua’s 14-target performance in Week 1 a fluke, or a sign of things to come? (Answer: He’s legit)
  • Should I chase Will Levis after a dazzling 4-TD performance in his debut in Week 8? (Answer: No)
