How the predictor works:
Power points are given from our computer based on over 50 criteria, with
the lower number being strongest. Each point difference in a team
reflects to a point on the scoreboard. Home field advantage is figured
at 3 points. The number in the prediction is how many points the
computer thinks they will win by. Take that and figure it to the spread
if it is the same or a bigger number than the spread we take the
favorite if it is smaller than the spread you take the underdog if you
are in a ATS contest.

Game of the Week
Take Denver +1 over San Diego (Sunday 4:15 pm CBS)
The Broncos looked impressive in week 1 and the Chargers looked terrible. The
Broncos are hardly ever home underdogs, but they are 5-1-1 ATS in seven
games as home dogs under Shanahan. Not only that, Merriman is out now and the
oddsmakers have not refigured that defense yet without Merriman. Cutler should
be able to pick apart the Chargers in their short passing game.
Best Bets
Packers (-3) at Detroit: Rodgers and the
Packers should easily cover the three point spread.
Chiefs
(-3) hosting Raiders: The Chiefs are 3 point favorites an although the
Raiders and Chiefs almost always play close games, these Raiders are in complete
disarray, and although Brodie Croyle is out for the Chiefs, Damon Huard can
manage the Chiefs offense just fine.
(How hard is the rrpp offense anyway? Run, Run, Pass, Punt.)
Money Line Picks:
Atlanta +250
Buffalo +185
Chicago +155
We fully intend to bet this as a three team
Money Line Parlay it's always a long shot, but the payoff will be incredible and
they are all very winnable games.
We said going in that week one would not be the predictors best as all
computer predictions were based on preseason, this is the first year we
did week one numbers, so 9-7 straight up and 50% ATS is not bad, but not
the nearer to 60% 3 year average of the predictor. Remember every year
the predictor gets better as the season goes on, so always be prepared
for a slow start. Week 5-15 is where the money is made.
Week 1 2008 Record:
9-7 (56.25%) Straight Up / 8-8 (50.00%) ATS
Total win based on 1 unit ($100.00): .00
How the predictor works:
Power points are given from our
computer based on over 50 criteria, with the lower number being
strongest. Each point difference in a team reflects to a point
on the scoreboard. The number in the prediction is how many points the computer
thinks they will win by. Take that and figure it to the spread
if it is the same or a bigger number than the spread we take the
favorite if it is smaller than the spread you take the underdog
if you are in a ATS contest.
If you have the option of not
picking teams anytime the difference in the prediction and the
spread is less than 1 point do not play the game.
Adjustment is based on home record formula overall over last 3 years along with
any major injuries
Reading Results: Red games are losses. If
you bet based on the score differential given ATS at opening
would be the ATS result
We count ATS ties as wins since you cant
lose a tie.
