ESPN: 5 Bills 4 Fish. (http://espn.go.com/nfl/picks)


Microsoft Cortana: Went 75% week 15. Buffalo a 64% chance of winning. (http://www.cortanapredictions.com/)


FiveThirtyEight:. Went 12-4 week 15. Bills 59% chance of winning. ELO point spread 2.5. (http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-nfl-predictions/)


Amos: Went 69% week 15. Buffalo a 51% chance of winning. (http://trevorbischoff.com/2016-amos-nfl-predictions/)


FiveThirtyEight gives the Bills a 1% chance of making the playoffs.

Amos has the Bills 3rd in the AFCE with a record of 8-8, only ahead of the Jets.


For the season so far:

FiveThirtyEight has called 65% of the games correctly.

Cortana 63%

Amos 56%


If you did nothing but pick home teams you'd be at 56% for the season.

Has anyone written a blog on how they've made out betting equal amounts on every game by following one of these sites? It seems you could make a pretty decent amount of money if you didn't deviate at all from their picks...65% is a pretty good winning percentage as far as handicapping goes from what I've heard...

 

I'd be interesting in seeing a writeup by someone that had experience doing it

I don't believe the 65% is against the spread.

If you didn't deviate and yet bet the same amount on each game, you would win 23.5% of your total wagers. That is a good return on your money.
