Wazzu Bill Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 FiveThirtyEight goes 12-2 for 2 straight weeks? Thats impressive.
CodeMonkey Posted October 21, 2015 Author Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) FiveThirtyEight goes 12-2 for 2 straight weeks? Thats impressive. It sure is. They have enough data now for that ELO model to be very accurate. Comforting that it picks the Bills Sunday by a wide margin Edited October 21, 2015 by CodeMonkey
NOVABillsFan Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 the majority are taking Buffalo? DOOMED!!!!!
Big Turk Posted October 21, 2015 Posted October 21, 2015 It sure is. They have enough data now for that ELO model to be very accurate. Comforting that it picks the Bills Sunday by a wide margin Has anyone bet on games using their model? Are they picking versus the spread? Thinking people could win a boatload of money by following that model...
CodeMonkey Posted October 22, 2015 Author Posted October 22, 2015 (edited) Has anyone bet on games using their model? Are they picking versus the spread? Thinking people could win a boatload of money by following that model... They pick straight up. But if you look on the page they do show what they call the ELO Point Spread. Which for this week is Bills -8 versus the betting spread which is Bills -4.5. But 3.5 points is pretty tight considering the model doesn't know about injuries etc. Bet that at your own risk Edited October 22, 2015 by CodeMonkey

26CornerBlitz Posted October 22, 2015 Posted October 22, 2015 @AroundTheNFL Around The NFL's Week 7 picks: Will Panthers stay undefeated? http://at.nfl.com/HD2GIyw
26CornerBlitz Posted October 23, 2015 Posted October 23, 2015 Week 7 forecast: Perfect storm?Five teams remain undefeated, but only two are in action this week: Tom Brady's Patriots and Cam Newton's Panthers. Will either fall on Sunday? Elliot Harrison predicts each Week 7 game. 24 14 Last week in this space, I promised that I would not pick the Jags to win another game if they blew it at home to the Texans. So I am sticking to that ... this week. Tyrod Taylor, Karlos Williams and Sammy Watkins have all been ruled out of this game by the Bills. That's not gonna help Watkins get the ball more. Speaking of grumbling Bills, perhaps the defensive linemen will channel their anger on the field and create a few sacks and takeaways this week. Buffalo needs those impact plays in London -- sans the Bills' impact offensive players. Meanwhile, the Allens have caught 57 balls as a WR tandem in Jacksonville, but the Jags aren't good enough to overcome silly turnovers on offense. Enough with the garbage-time fantasy stats, Blake Bortles. Be careful with the football. #BUFvsJAX

Heitz Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 @SportsCenter Carl has some strong feelings about the Buffalo Bills. Check out Carl's Stone Cold Lock of the Century...of the Week http://es.pn/1KvPTXc http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:13957957 Was going to post this - AMAZING. The AM sports bar rant and "every other rotavirus in coach form that Buffalo has hired over the years." line kill it!
26CornerBlitz Posted October 24, 2015 Posted October 24, 2015 @DonBanks Jets defense can play the physical style that has given Tom Brady trouble in the past: Week 7 predictions column: http://www.si.com/nfl/2015/10/23/nfl-week-7-picks-scores-predictions-schedule The Jaguars have played the good solider and agreed to hold one “home” game a year in London through at least 2020, as the league desired. But is a steady diet of Jaguars games really the best scenario for football fans in England? Sunday’s Bills-Jags “Breakfast at Wembley” matchup is the 13th game in the London series, which means there have been 26 teams making the trek across the pond since 2007. Of those 26 teams, only eight clubs (31%) had a winning record going into the game, and there have been nearly that many winless teams take the field in London. Jacksonville is making its third London trip in three years, having lost badly to San Francisco and Dallas the past two seasons. A good showing this time by the Jaguars would at the minimum make them more palatable to watch. And with Buffalo missing key players like Tyrod Taylor, Sammy Watkins, Percy Harvin, Karlos Williams and Kyle Williams, if not now Jacksonville, when?
