bawsak Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 (edited) I have created a system to rate NFL teams. Not sure if it’s any good but gonna experiment using it for bets. Please don’t follow it for bets at the moment as I haven’t any evidence it works. More of a running experiment. We will see how it goes Here as some preseason ratings I created using some numerical formulas based on PFF grading for position groups. Blue numbers are defensive grades, pink is offence and yellow overall (with offence double weighted). Position grades have been weighted for importance in the following order: QB, WR, DB, OL/DL, LB, TE, RB. I haven’t included FBs or special team players in my grading. Also note these are preseason gradings and I haven’t made any adjustments yet for wk 1&2 performances Edited September 26, 2020 by bawsak S for Secondary replaced with DB for Defensive Backs in the key to avoid confusion Sportwetten 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couple this with them already being quite close with the system ratings, Cinci at 2/1 seems a pick.

bawsak Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 I have updated a few areas. New Orleans have fallen off a cliff with Brees form and Thomas injury. OLine still good but rest of offence is average. I haven’t done all teams so won’t post revised grades but they dip to 74. Detroit also dip slightly to 69 but at home should still be a pickem game so decent pick to win at 6/4. I don’t really fancy Detroit on the spread at -3 at 1/1 given NOrleans could hit form and blow them out (they are as likely to win big as win small) Sportwetten 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bawsak Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 (edited) Again I’m not advising bets at this time but the bets this experimental system would throw up would be: Week 4 Carolina 2.48 v Arizona Atlanta 3.7 @ Green Bay Also on the spread: Carolina (+3) Atlanta (+7) And I’ll add in Detroit (+3) v New Orleans (it’s the system I’m experimenting after all - not my judgement) Edited October 3, 2020 by bawsak “Week 4” added for future reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bawsak Posted October 3, 2020 Author Share Posted October 3, 2020 Just now, bawsak said: Blue = defence pink = offence yellow = overall Apologies. I mixed up entering some data for SanFran & Seattle. It was an alphabetical order issue due to Seattle jumping their abbreviation SF. SF got some of Seattle’s offensive and defensive data and vice versa.

bawsak Posted October 18, 2020 Author Share Posted October 18, 2020 Basically my system seems to be rating Cincinnati, Cleveland, Tampa, Atlanta higher than the bookies do so I’m backing them at the moment and seems be rating KC, Pittsburgh, Indy much lower so I’m backing against them. As I say I’m still playing around with it. should probably have backed Houston in hindsight but I missed that one and it would have been a loser.
