Against The Spread: Week 5

The Buffalo Bills have the best scoring differential in the NFL through Week 4, with a positive 90 points difference. Do not read too much into this because their last three opposing quarterbacks have been Davis Mills, Jacoby Brissett, and Taylor Heinicke. The Cardinals have the second-highest scoring differential in the NFL, with a positive 55 difference. At the other end of the spectrum, we have the Falcons, Texans, Dolphins, Jets, and Lions who all have poor scoring differentials. The scoring differential has a very strong correlation of an R-squared value of 0.79 compared to games won.

Against The Spread: Week 4

The most exciting game of the week was when the Chargers traveled to Kansas City for a matchup between two of the best young quarterbacks in the NFL. Justin Herbert came out of the gates strong, building an early 14-0 lead in the first half. The comeback that was expected from Patrick Mahomes, was delivered in the third quarter with consecutive passing scores to take a 17-14 lead. The fourth quarter of this game may have been the most exciting 15 minutes of football this season.

Against the Spread: Week 3

What a week of football! It started hot with an offensive explosion between the Cardinals and Vikings highlighted by a breakout game for second-round rookie Rondale Moore. We also had a thrilling overtime game in which the Titans took down the Seahawks. Derek Carr kept rolling as he leads the NFL in passing yards, defeating the Steelers in Pittsburgh while they bracketed Waller all game. The week was capped off with a big upset by the Ravens on Sunday Night Football. Let’s take a deeper look into the details of these games, and what data points could be sticky and applied to Week 3.

Against The Spread: Week 1

The year is 2021 and as Charles Darwin theorized, we must adapt or die. This is a theory that we are applying to our Against the Spread series for the 2021 season. Rather than picking the lines as we did in 2020 and prior, we are going to adapt the format to bring value not just to sports gamblers, but to all fantasy football players. In this series we will look at the Sunday slate, we are going to identify key games, and provide insights on why each bet could be the wise move.  As we discover trends through the season we will be able to make more determined analyses on specific picks. To go along with matchups and trends, we will look at key fantasy players who have the most beneficial or detrimental matchups. Finally, we will provide a weekly underdog of the week as well as a potential parlay to win big.

Against the Spread: NFL Week 7

Let’s start with the obvious news. The Giants are likely getting their star running back Saquon Barkley back for this matchup against the Cardinals. Evan Engram is also likely to return as well, which means that Daniel Jones should perform far better than his last outing. Facing a Cardinals team that has allowed nearly 414 yards per game at home, why on Earth would anyone pick Arizona in this matchup?

Against The Spread: NFL Week 5

Patriots (-15) at Redskins
Though this is a fairly large spread (the largest of the week, in fact) I’m still not shying away from the Pats. The Patriots own the largest points differential in the league by a considerable margin at +94 on the season. The Cowboys are the second closest with a “meager” +51 point differential. Their success lies surprisingly with their defense that ranks first in yards allowed per game through the first four weeks of the season. They’re currently the odds-on favorite to win the Super Bowl and are one of only three unbeaten teams left in the NFL.
