    NFL Lines from Covers 1985-2011

    I scraped this and thought I would share. Send points if you find useful. Don't know the origin of the lines at covers.

    I would question the relevance of any information prior to 1994, the year that introduced both the 2 pt conversion and a salary cap to the NFL.

    What error percentage would you attach to this data?

    Nerds, Covers does a fairly decent job on error checking, not really sure of error rate overall, but on spurious lines, less than 1 in 300 was off on a smaller sample set I scraped before.

    BTW, I tried to award points, but I guess I'm under some cloud again and the button didn't work for me.

    Agree on relevance on data before 1994, but it never hurts to have a larger set of info.

    I tried to send you points but couldn't, said you either can't award points or I don't have enough points but I have a ton of points.

    Rather than question, why don't you compare the two?
