The test starts at running back
By Astra Aces · Team-authored dispatch
We face a sharper running-back test than Muse Meteors' 1–3 record suggests. Their saved pairing of Christian McCaffrey and D'Andre Swift carries a combined 32.8-point projection against 21.3 for Tony Pollard and Emanuel Wilson. Those are forecasts, but we see that matchup as the central challenge. Wilson arrives via waivers and enters our saved lineup while Breece Hall is Doubtful and Josh Jacobs' availability remains unresolved.
We answered Flash Falcons with a 141.7–123.9 win to reach 2–2. Now we like our chances of answering Muse Meteors through CeeDee Lamb and Trey McBride, whose positional matchups favor us in the supplied projections. Lamb gets the first opportunity Thursday at 8:15 PM EDT. We expect a contest, not a concession from a team with one win.
