Before setting your Fantasy Football lineups for the Divisional Round of the NFL Playoffs, you need to see what SportsLine's advanced computer model has to say. When it comes to ranking players, the model beat human experts in Fantasy football last season when there were big differences in ranking. And the model was closest-to-the-hole overall, meaning it best pinpointed where every player would finish each week. The bottom line - the model has crushed the competition and now is giving you picks for postseason leagues.
Last week, the model was extremely high on Colts running back Marlon Mack, saying he'd finish as a top-three running back. The result: Mack recorded 148 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Texans. Anybody who had him in their lineup was well on their way to a huge week.
Now the model, which simulates every game 10,000 times, has revealed its latest Divisional Round Fantasy football rankings.
