AREA STRENGTHS: Players marked OUT for upcoming game will not contribute (injury update subject to change with more info during week). For area strength grade calculations, starters worth twice as much as backups. For running plays, your OL versus opponent Front 7 = adjustment to RB averages. For passing plays, your WR + OL - opposition Front 7 - opposition Secondary = adjustment to QB %.
