Fantasy Playoff Strength of Schedule: Weeks 15–17
Every NFL team's fantasy-playoff matchups at QB, RB, WR and TE, ranked from the LeagueFrenzy projection's own opponent factor for each game. Assumes your playoffs are weeks 15–17; switch to weeks 14–16 below if your league ends a week earlier.
How these numbers are built
Each figure is the opponent factor the LeagueFrenzy projection already applies to that game: a player's projected fantasy points against this opponent divided by the same projection against an average defense, judged from how players at his position have scored against that defense in recent games. 1.05 means about 5% more points than against an average defense. The projection caps the factor between 0.88 and 1.12, and stores none when the defense has too few past games against the position to judge. A team's weekly figure is the median over its players at the position, and its playoff figure is the average over the playoff games it still has to play. Rank 1 is the friendliest schedule. Where any of those games has no stored factor, the page shows not enough data instead of guessing. Betting lines are not used: they are posted about a week before each game, too late for these weeks.

Players whose playoff weeks beat their season
A player is listed when his positional rank over the playoff weeks is at least 5 spots better than his rest-of-season positional rank, both ranked by projected points over replacement with preseason ADP not blended in, and he projects above replacement level over the playoff weeks. Only players with their own per-game projections are compared, so rookies without them are left out.
