Back At The Reeeeeem Fantasy Analytics Deep Dive

Here are stats. I hope they organized hopefully in an easy way for you guys to reach and understand. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out, call me out, or let me know.

All of these stats are based solely on the regular season. Nothing postseason is included.

Also, there is a margin for error here. I am plugging a lot of this stuff in manually (man I wish I knew how to code information from ESPN directly) so sometimes I miss type numbers. I have some sort of OCD with this stuff but not enough to check every single number, every single time I type it in. So, bear with me.

RECORD BASED ON MEDIAN SCORE PER WEEK

This is what teams’ record would be based solely on if you have a top-half scoring output of the week, and if you have a bottom-half scoring output of the week.

	TEAM	RANK BASED ON MEDIAN SCORE PER WEEK	DIFFERENCE IN RECORD
1.	Ronan McClorey	9-4	8-5 (Third Place)
2.	Tom McLaughlin	8-5	5-8 (Seventh Place)
3.	Steve Kultzow	8-5	11-2 (First Place)
4.	Matthew McGinnity	7-6	9-4 (Second Placed)
5.	Tommy Simon	7-6	7-6 (Fourth Place)
6.	Matthew Buzzi	6-7	6-7 (Fifth Place)
7.	Christopher Lobo	6-7	5-8 (Eighth Place)
8.	Jimmy Simon	5-8	4-9 (Tenth Place)
9.	Jonathan Stanko	5-8	6-7 (Sixth Place)
10.	Mike Ritz	4-9	4-9 (Ninth Place)

Rather crazy that Tom have the unluckiest season after he won the championship last year? Rather crazy. Three of the four playoff teams are in the top four. Unfortunately this says Ritz should have finished last, and I should have been way worse than i was.

RECORD BASED ON AVERAGE SCORE PER WEEK

This is what teams’ records would look like based on if you have a score above or below the average score of the week. These records will NOT have an equal number of wins and losses, so do not be alarmed when you notice that.

	TEAM	RECORD BASED ON AVERAGE SCORE PER WEEK	DIFFERENCE IN RECORD
1.	Matthew McGinnity	8-5	9-4 (Second Placed)
2.	Tom McLaughlin	7-6	5-8 (Seventh Place)
	Ronan McClorey	7-6	8-5 (Third Place)
	Steve Kultzow	7-6	11-2 (First Place)
	Tommy Simon	7-6	7-6 (Fourth Place)
6.	Matthew Buzzi	6-7	6-7 (Fifth Place)
7.	Christopher Lobo	5-8	5-8 (Eighth Place)
	Jimmy Simon	5-8	4-9 (Tenth Place)
	Jonathan Stanko	5-8	6-7 (Sixth Place)
10.	Mike Ritz	3-10	4-9 (Ninth Place)

McLaughlin can use this version of the standings as ammo for trash talker later. Three of the four playoff teams are the same. Steve and I were two of the luckier teams by this metric, and McLaughlin clearly the unluckiest.

POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	POINTS SCORED (Sorted By)	AVERAGE PER WEEK	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Tom McLaughlin	1627.44	125.19	5.00
2.	Ronan McClorey	1619.52	124.58	4.38
3.	Matthew Buzzi	1599.48	123.04	4.85
4.	Matthew McGinnity	1543.00	118.69	4.77
5.	Steve Kultzow	1523.09	117.16	5.15
6.	Tommy Simon	1498.36	115.26	5.69
7.	Mike Ritz	1490.00	114.62	6.00
8.	Chris Lobo	1430.76	110.06	5.77
9.	Jimmy Simon	1418.90	109.15	6.46
10.	Jonathan Stanko	1373.32	105.64	6.85

Two of the top four scoring teams are not in the playoffs. Defending champ Tom and Buzzi both left wondering how they missed out. Steve (the regular season champion) and Tommy sneak in. We can also see that while Tom scored the most points in the league, he also had the biggest boom or bust; the fact he averaged ranking fifth per week speaks to the fact he was either the best or the worst, but his bests were REALLY good.

POINTS AGAINST

	TEAM	POINTS AGAINST (Sorted By)	AVERAGE PER WEEK
1.	Steve Kultzow	1374.58	105.74
2.	Jonathan Stanko	1447.60	111.35
3.	Tommy Simon	1477.46	113.65
4.	Matthew Buzzi	1481.08	113.93
5.	Ronan McClorey	1511.98	116.31
6.	Matthew McGinnity	1518.70	116.82
7.	Chris Lobo	1519.52	116.89
8.	Tom McLaughlin	1549.42	119.18
9.	Jimmy Simon	1596.76	122.83
10.	Mike Ritz	1645.76	126.59

We can all say that Steve improved scoring wise over the second half of the season, but he is also still remarkably lucky. Ritz had awful luck with his opponents averaging more points against him than Tom (the leading scorer in the league) averaged per game.

FULL TEAM POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Ronan McClorey	196.56	3.62
2.	Matthew Buzzi	188.14	3.85
3.	Tommy Simon	173.23	5.31
4.	Tom McLaughlin	170.88	5.38
5.	Steve Kultzow	166.00	5.54
6.	Christopher Lobo	164.35	5.54
7.	Jimmy Simon	162.76	5.77
8.	Matthew McGinnity	159.33	6.31
9.	Jonathan Stanko	154.36	6.08
10.	Michael Ritz	153.99	7.46

Very interesting that Tommy has the third most Full Team Points Scored but he ranks sixth in points scored per week; his bench was always performing…for no reason. The average weekly rankings are all in order except for McGinnity and I flip-flopping.

QUARTERBACK POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Matthew Buzzi	22.32	3.92
2.	Steve Kultzow	22.49	4.08
3.	Ronan McClorey	19.95	5.38
4.	Tommy Simon	19.27	5.23
5.	Matthew McGinnity	19.14	5.15
6.	Tom McLaughlin	18.50	5.62
7.	Christopher Lobo	17.16	5.85
8.	Jimmy Simon	16.74	6.46
9.	Jonathan Stanko	15.71	6.31
10.	Michael Ritz	14.56	6.92

Buzzi and Steve are WAY above the rest. They lapped the competition. The average ranking and average points per week differs greatly in the three through five spots; somehow McGinnity averaged better placement but scored less points per week.

RUNNING BACK POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Michael RItz	36.65	4.31
2.	Matthew Buzzi	35.04	4.62
3.	Ronan McClorey	34.59	4.85
4.	Christopher Lobo	33.95	4.77
5.	Jonathan Stanko	32.65	5.23
6.	Tommy Simon	32.45	5.15
7.	Matthew McGinnity	32.49	5.08
8.	Tommy McLaughlin	31.60	5.54
9.	Steve Kultzow	25.48	6.85
10.	Jimmy Simon	17.63	8.38

Let’s be real here. The only major takeaways are from the bottom. Steve won the regular season without a strong running back game, but Jimmy went a bit too far and punted the position into oblivion. Rather impressive really. There is more of a gap between nine and ten in terms of ranking then second and eighth. Jimmy may need to rethink drafting strategy for next year.

WIDE RECEIVER POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Tom McLaughlin	48.92	4.23
2.	Matthew McGinnity	46.50	4.31
3.	Jimmy Simon	44.42	4.46
4.	Ronan McClorey	43.33	5.38
5.	Steve Kultzow	42.18	5.00
6.	Michael Ritz	39.43	6.31
7.	Tommy Simon	37.50	6.23
8.	Matthew Buzzi	36.38	5.69
9.	Jonathan Stanko	36.05	6.38
10.	Christopher Lobo	43.93	6.38

Buzzi scoring that third fewest points per matchup but ranking two spots higher than he should is interesting. The top three all fit their marks. Steve also averaging the fifth most points and ranking fifth makes 100% sense. It actually fits.

TIGHT END POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Jimmy Simon	12.20	4.00
2.	Ronan McClorey	12.17	3.92
3.	Steve Kultzow	11.30	5.31
4.	Tommy Simon	10.65	4.62
5.	Tom McLaughlin	10.12	5.48
6.	Michael Ritz	8.28	5.69
7.	Jonathan Stanko	8.04	6.23
8.	Matthew Buzzi	7.62	5.85
9.	Christopher Lobo	6.38	6.46
10.	Matthew McGinnity	5.90	7.15

Jimmy scored the most points per week from the tight end position, but Ronan averaged ranking the best. Half the league averaged double digits, and half did not; three of the four playoff teams are among those five. There are a couple other flipper-flopper spots between points scored and average ranking.

DEFENSE/SPECIAL POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Matthew Buzzi	11.08	5.15
2.	Jimmy Simon	10.00	4.23
3.	Mike Ritz	9.92	4.62
4.	Christopher Lobo	9.15	4.92
5.	Matthew McGinnity	7.00	5.08
6.	Tommy Simon	7.00	5.69
7.	Steve Kultzow	6.77	5.62
8.	Ronan McClorey	6.54	5.59
9.	Tom McLaughlin	6.46	6.08
10.	Jonathan Stanko	5.85	6.00

Matthew Buzzi lives by the boom or bust defense. The Dallas Cowboys score 30 points or score negative points. Buzzi average rank of 5.15 is actually fifth best. It is interesting that three of the lower ranked teams had best defensive rosters. Also crazy that McGinnity and Tommy Simon tied with their defenses averaging 7.0 points exactly…each.

KICKER POINTS SCORED

	TEAM	AVERAGE PER WEEK (Sorted By)	AVERAGE WEEKLY RANKING
1.	Tom McLaughlin	8.92	4.38
2.	Steve Kultzow	8.69	5.15
3.	Matthew McGinnity	8.38	4.77
4.	Christopher Lobo	7.92	5.31
5.	Tommy Simon	7.92	5.38
6.	Jimmy Simon	7.69	5.23
7.	Matthew Buzzi	7.54	5.54
8.	Ronan McClorey	7.38	5.00
9.	Jonathan Stanko	7.31	5.31
10.	Michael Ritz	5.92	6.08

Again, another crazy tie in the average of points. Both Lobo and T-Si with 7.92 points. Lots of variance with this position…makes sense because people were swapping out kickers all the time. The only team that didn’t average at least seven points from the kicker was Ritz.
