Week 1 is officially in the books, and it was absolutely mental. Months of build up led to a sudden explosion in the pressure cooker of an NFL weekend produced some ridiculous performances, both good and bad. Looking back at my Rush Rating from Week 1, I’m proud to say that I nailed all six of my projections, based on match-ups and advanced data. It was a solid first week, and I’m excited to provide you with my Week 2 projections.

First, some housekeeping: As of now, I am using 2018 data for the sake of having a complete sample size. After Week 4 of this season, I will be taking into account this season’s data, which will allow me to (finally) start talking about the rookies that pique the interest of so many, like David Montgomery, Josh Jacobs, Devin Singletary, and Miles Sanders.

So, let’s look ahead to Week 2, shall we?
