Fantasy Football and AI – Week 3 Results

Good day from Barcelona. I landed this morning after an overnight flight. I’m not sure how much my seat mates enjoyed me watching the Lion’s game via WiFi.

Anyway, I’m happy to report that AI has finally won a matchup. We are now 1-2! I will say though that we won on a technicality as the opponent for week 3 started Jayden Daniels who ended up not playing. But, in the end a win is a win.

Here is our final scores for the starters:

Josh Allen played well. Barkley not so much and boy was the Parker Romo pickup a bust.

Once again we had some good bench performance that we were not capitalizing on.

Both Keenan Allen and Sam Darnold had good games which would have significantly boosted our overall score and had Jayden Daniels played we still probably would have won had the AI determined that these were good starts.

Overall I still think the AI is making good predictions for who to pick. I want to place a little bit more emphasis on the OP slot for selecting quarterbacks and also start weighing in the average fantasy points for the 2025 season. Although, Parker Romo was suggested as he was averaging 18 points per game and then dropped negative points this week.

While i’m traveling for the next few weeks I likely won’t make any major architecture or code changes but I do think that from a performance perspective I want to investigate the integration of MCP servers that can handle querying or caching some of the DynamoDB data.

Stay tuned for the week 4 lineup later this week!
