Let's take Lamar Jackson, for example.

• His most recent 16 games are used in the Best / Worst calculation because he had that many games to use.
• If Lamar was a player with only 6 career games, his Best and Worst 2 games would be used in the calculation
• The best games for Jackson are in red, and the worst are in blue.
• The Best/Worst Games are the average of those reds and blues.
• It's a good indicator of the potential ceiling and floor.
