I am interested in handicapping NFL I just don't know where to start. I want to be able to start at the beginning of next season and would like to have some kind of method in place by then. I have a basic knowledge of statistics but I am unsure how to place weight on something like home field advantage or weather, or how to come up with a spread. I want to be able to see what type of spread I come up with as opposed to say what vegas or some other book is offering. Any info is appreciated.
