Are the New England Patriots still Super Bowl favorites?

Week 1 wasn’t supposed to end like it did for the New England Patriots. Hammered by the Kansas City Chiefs at home, 42-27, the Patriots’ dream of a perfect season went up in flames before it could even start.

New England was projected to win all 16 of its regular season games, and now that the team has lost, it seems like many are already giving up on the Pats. Week 1 saw Tom Brady and company greatly under perform, but the Patriots did play the AFC West’s winners from 2016. So, expecting the Chiefs to rollover was a  ... 

NFL WEEK 2

We kicked off the NFL season going 2-1 ATS and now I’m going to take a look at a few potential plays for week 2. The main strategy I want to implement is fading the public. Books are always looking to exploit public perception so hopefully we can find a few winners by fading the public in a few heavily public-bet games. Obviously, this is written on Wednesday (9/13) so always keep an eye on the changing lines and percentages.

Football predictions week 2

Cleveland Browns versus Baltimore Ravens

The Browns (0-1) head to Baltimore to take on the Ravens (1-0) in this AFC North division match up. The Power Ranking Indicator has the Browns at +31 while the Ravens are at +28 and slightly declining after a recent strong upward surge. The NFL Team Strength Oscillator shows a good indication of the team’s current trend. The Browns are at -21.17 while the Ravens are at +4.88 at rapidly on the ascent. In head to head match ups last season, the Ravens won both meetings as the favorites. A big 7.5 point favorite this  ... 

Baseball predictions September 15 – 17

St. Louis Cardinals versus Chicago Cubs

In a battle between top teams in the National League Central, the Cardinals are at +22 and slightly rising in the Power Ranking Indicator, while the Cubs are +17 and declining. A similar trend is seen in the MLB Team Strength Oscillator, with the Cardinals at +3.18 and rapidly increasing, while the Cubs are -4.23 and swiftly declining. The Cardinals are tenth in Team Volatility, making them a good bet as the favorite and team to avoid as the underdog.

Are the Cleveland Indians this year’s World Series Champions?

The Cleveland Indians have the best win record in the American League (as of this writing) and have reeled off an unbelievable 19 straight wins. The Tribe has 18 games left this season, and projections have the baseball team winning 100 games, second most behind the Los Angeles Dodgers’ projected 103 wins.

ZCode System’s power rankings has Cleveland as the best team in baseball. The Dodgers have fallen to ninth as the team looks unlikely of stopping its slide.

Not only are the Indians on their way to 100 wins, but baseball number crunchers and statisticians  ...

English Premier League week 4

Manchester City vs. Liverpool

Manchester City and Liverpool go into Saturday’s match with identical records after three matches. Both teams are undefeated, and both have been great in attack this term.

New York Yankees versus Texas Rangers

The Yankees are second in the American League East, while the Rangers are third in the American League West. Looking at the overall trend and current power of the two teams, I see the Yankees hold a big +25 to +14 edge in the Power Ranking Indicator, while the Rangers hold a slim +4.28 to +2.34 advantage in terms of the MLB Strength Oscillator. Neither team is in the top ten in Team Volatility, so I am putting little value into favorite and underdog status in this  ... 

NBA Futures Betting: Golden State Warriors Favored by Sportsbooks

After winning two of the last three NBA Finals and having the most star studded roster in the Association, sportsbooks around the world have unanimously placed the Golden State Warriors as the NBA futures betting favorite.

The 2017-18 NBA regular season tips off on October 17th with the Warriors in action against the Houston Rockets. Steph Curry and Kevin Durant will be poised to lead the Warriors back to the title, but can an upstart Western Conference team stop Golden State from a fourth straight Finals appearance?

NFL Predictions Week 1

The first week of the NFL season is always the most difficult to predict, as little is seen of starting teams during the preseason. There are methods to use, however, including point spreads, overall team trends, head-to-head match up, previous season’s performance and so on. Utilizing the Power Ranking Indicator, Team Strength Oscillator, Head-to-Head records from last season, among others, here is my breakdown for six games this week.

Jacksonville Jaguars at Houston Texans

Jacksonville finished 3-13 last season, while Houston finished on top of the division at 9-7. The Texans come in as a 5.5 point favorite and won  ...

NFL WEEK 1

The NFL season is finally here! Kansas City takes on New England Thursday September 7th to start things off and then there is a full slate of games over the weekend. The most heavily bet American sport presents many opportunities for us and I’m going to take a look at a few potential plays for week 1. Obviously, this is written on Tuesday (9/5) so always keep an eye on the changing lines and percentages.

AFC EAST PREVIEW

With opening weekend (September 7th) right around the corner, now is the time to start digging deeper into expectations for each team. Today we will take a look at the AFC EAST.

NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS

Last season: 14-2

BetOnline O/U wins: 12.5

New England has won the AFC East the last eight straight years and it doesn’t look like that will change in 2017. Losing Julian Edelman to a knee injury in the preseason is a big loss but the Patriots always find a way to make replacements work. It doesn’t hurt to have Tom Brady available for  ...
