"There are 13 games left in Week 10 after the Broncos beat the Raiders 10-7 on Thursday night. To get ready for the rest of the action, our NFL analysts have you covered on last-minute prep. First, analytics writer Seth Walder breaks down three stat trends that could be pivotal this weekend. Then fantasy football writer Eric Moody runs through five players who are rostered in under 50% of ESPN fantasy football leagues as of Saturday and could be started in a jam."
"Will new Colts cornerback Sauce Gardner play press coverage against Falcons wide receiver Drake London? Through nine weeks, Gardner has played press coverage 54% of the time, per NFL Next Gen Stats. That's the second most by any corner with at least 150 coverage snaps (just behind the Chiefs' Trent McDuffie at 55%). It remains to be seen if that pattern will continue now that Gardner is on the Colts. For what it's worth, Charvarius Ward had a 34% press rate when he was healthy for Indy this season, which is well short of Gardner but still 11th-highest."
Thirteen games remain in Week 10 following the Broncos' 10-7 win over the Raiders. Three statistical trends could influence outcomes, including Sauce Gardner's press-coverage rate and its impact in Indianapolis. Several fantasy options rostered in under 50% of leagues could be viable emergency starts. Potential surprises, a key matchup to watch, and a favorite betting selection are identified for Week 10. Multiple quarterback situations around the league present notable storylines, including J.J. McCarthy's return for the Vikings and questions about the Patriots' performance in Tampa Bay.
