How this is worked out
OVER is the part that matters. Everybody's production is scored — touchdowns and turnovers heavily, yardage lightly, because this is not fantasy and volume is not value — and then the bar for his position comes off the top. That bar is measured in your league, not guessed: it is what the last starting quarterback here actually produces, or the last starting back, or the ninety-sixth receiver. Everything above that is the case for an award. It is also why the board is not just quarterbacks — a quarterback has to clear a much higher bar to be remarkable, which is how the award really gets voted.

TEAM is his side's SRS — how many points they beat an average team by, once you account for who they played. It nudges the score up or down by a quarter at most, so a great player on a bad team still makes this board. He just has to be better to lead it.

PRICE is that share of the field written the way you would see it on a board: +675 means about 12.9%. It is a model price, not a market — nobody has taken the other side of it, no coins move, and it moves only when the games do. It reads in odds because odds are how people argue, not because anything is being wagered.

300 players in this league currently clear their position's bar over at least 3 games. The top two are within 6.1 points of the field, which is close enough that one week changes it.
Want it argued out loud instead? the booth has somebody whose whole job is explaining numbers like these.
