Toyota Roster Tune-up

• Remember that time you thought, "I don't need help from your stinking articles. I can beat Hitters on my own." How'd it work out for you?
• Could've started Brian Hoyer, who underachieved, but still had more points than the starting QB with 17.95 against a projected 24.01.
• With 4.00 points against a projected 15.17, Todd Gurley did not meet his projection for the third straight game.
• The 7.60 points scored by Brandon LaFell fell short of his 13.33-point projection, the third straight game where that has happened.
• At the DEF position, AD got outscored by Hitters 23.00 - 5.00.
