4DK Metcalf
Pittsburgh Steelers#47 yrs expMississippi76 · 235 lbBest at volume, weak efficiency
Each axis is a percentile against every qualified wide receiver over the same window. The dashed white shape is the position average; the gold ring marks elite (90th percentile).
63: situation-dependent
One number for how well Metcalf has actually played lately, not a talent rating. 70% is the skill profile, weighted towards efficiency; the rest is how steady his games are and whether he still produces against the better defences. Ranked against every qualified wide receiver; 99 is the best. Over the last three seasons he scores 86 (#27 of 121).
Trend and schedule are shown for context but kept out of the number: over a handful of games they're mostly noise.
Where Metcalf can hurt the Bengals
How he gets his production, set against how the Bengals have held up in their last 17 games. Ranks are of 32.
Where his targets come from
Share of his targets. The white tick is the league average.
How CIN defend it
Ranked of 32, last 17 games. Green is a weakness to attack.
- Cincinnati rank 28th against short throws, which make up 56% of Metcalf's targets.
- Don't force deep balls: they've been Metcalf's worst return (-0.38 EPA a target), and Cincinnati are 4th there.
- Work the left side: 39% of his targets go that way and Cincinnati rank 27th defending throws there.
- Contested catches aren't his edge this week: he's 37th percentile for separation and 30th for hands, and Daxton Hill, DJ Turner and DJ Ivey all allow fewer yards per target than the average corner (7.4).
- Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
