Topic: Def vs. Post Column - determined how?

1 Topic by setcamper
Curious how this is calculated. I ask because currently FC (on DK) is listing TJ Yeldon going up against HOU as the 2nd worst defense for a RB this week. On ESPN, through 5 weeks, Houston has given up the 8th most points to RBs (by standard scoring numbers). Scoring settings aside, I'm wondering why there's such a gap between FC's evaluation of the matchup and historical production for the position.
This is because we use a rolling 16 week average rather than just the current season. It might not apply to every team because of personnel and coaching changes but we still feel like it is more statistically significant than a 3-4 week period. We may switch to just the current season later in the season.
