A nice bounce-back week for the Winning Stats Predictor last week, going 9-7 Against the Spread, bringing our season record to 106-96-6, which is 52.4%, the exact percentage you need to "beat Vegas". It's always good when you aren't losing money to Vegas. Picking winners was OK, going the exact same 9-7, bringing our season total to 133-74, or 64.3%. Let's have a strong last three weeks to finish off the best season the Winning Stats have had.
This week hit against the spread on Thursday night with the Chargers, but didn't get the winner correct, like most people I'm guessing. Here's the rest of Week 15:
| Home | Score | Away | Score | Probability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Broncos | 32 | Chargers | 28 | 60.1% |
| Falcons | 27 | Redskins | 24 | 59.4% |
| Titans | 21 | Cardinals | 24 | 56.7% |
| Buccaneers | 16 | 49ers | 18 | 55.6% |
| Rams | 23 | Saints | 29 | 65.3% |
| Giants | 17 | Seahawks | 27 | 74.4% |
| Browns | 26 | Bears | 27 | 52.9% |
| Colts | 28 | Texans | 23 | 62.5% |
| Jaguars | 17 | Bills | 18 | 54.3% |
| Dolphins | 26 | Patriots | 23 | 56.3% |
| Vikings | 22 | Eagles | 25 | 59.0% |
| Raiders | 19 | Chiefs | 25 | 66.3% |
| Panthers | 26 | Jets | 15 | 78.2% |
| Cowboys | 29 | Packers | 24 | 62.5% |
| Steelers | 24 | Bengals | 25 | 52.9% |
| Lions | 21 | Ravens | 17 | 60.5% |
SuperContest went 3-2, bringing our season total to 34-34-2. I feel pretty good about the picks this week, all of which are home underdogs:
- Buccaneers +5.5 vs. 49ers
- Jaguars +2.5 vs. Bills
- Vikings +5 vs. Eagles
- Dolphins +2.5 vs. Patriots
- Steelers +3 vs. Bengals
