How to use it
Convert probabilities into pool points.
The strongest pick receives the maximum points and every following game receives one fewer point. If your pool uses a different scale, preserve the order and remap the points.
Close probabilities are effectively ties. Use your pool's tiebreak rule instead of forcing certainty the model does not have.
The model uses only information available before the target week: opponent-adjusted team strength, scoring form, prior-season strength, home field and rest. Market odds are shown for context and do not create the team rating.
Read the methodology →When do these NFL picks update?
The board refreshes with the scheduled data release before kickoff. Each game prediction freezes when that game starts.
Does the model use the betting line to make its pick?
No. Team strength, scoring, site and rest create the prediction. The timestamped market line is shown separately for comparison.
Are these guaranteed picks?
No. Probabilities and score projections describe uncertainty; they do not guarantee an outcome or profit.
