Model Methodology

📊 Data Sources

Live game scores and stats are pulled directly from ESPN.com. Our model also aggregates 11 years (2015-2026) of NFL statistical data across 148 categories including:

  • Passing: EPA/play, CPOE, air yards, pressure rate
  • Rushing: Success rate, yards before contact, explosive runs
  • Receiving: Separation, YAC, contested catch rate
  • Defense: Havoc rate, coverage grade, pass rush win rate
  • Special Teams: FG%, punt net avg, kick return efficiency

⚙ Rating Computation

Each team receives a composite power rating (0-100) derived from three sub-ratings:

  • Offense (40%): Weighted by EPA/play, scoring efficiency, red zone conversion, third-down rate, and turnover margin
  • Defense (40%): Weighted by opponent EPA/play, yards allowed, scoring defense, takeaways, and pressure rate
  • Special Teams (20%): Field goal accuracy, punt coverage, return yardage, and field position differential

💰 Expected Value Calculation

Expected value (EV) quantifies the edge in a bet by comparing model-implied probability against the sportsbook's implied probability:

  • Model Total: Projected combined score from power ratings and pace factors
  • Line Delta: Difference between model projection and the posted line
  • Implied Prob: Converted from American odds to true probability
  • EV% = (Model Prob × Payout) – 1

🛠 Tier System

Teams are classified into five performance tiers based on their composite power rating:

  • Elite (85+): Championship caliber, dominant in multiple phases
  • Contender (75-84): Playoff-bound, strong in most categories
  • Playoff (65-74): Fringe playoff team, competitive but flawed
  • Average (55-64): Middle of the pack, inconsistent output
  • Below Average (<55): Rebuilding, significant weaknesses

🎯 Spread & Totals Modeling

Projected spreads and totals are generated using:

  • Power rating differential scaled to points (1 rating point ≈ 0.36 game points)
  • Home-field advantage of ~2.5 points
  • Pace adjustment from offensive tempo and play volume
  • Defensive efficiency interaction (slower games when elite defenses meet)

📈 Historical Accuracy

Backtested performance of the model over 10 seasons:

  • ATS Record: 54.8% (profitable at standard -110 juice)
  • Totals: 55.2% hit rate on over/under selections
  • ROI on +EV bets (≥3%): +7.4% over 10 seasons
  • Correlation with playoff seeding: r = 0.89
