USING THE BTP CONTEST TO FORM CONSENSUS :
Best bet : cincy (57)
cowgirls (27)
colts (15)
giants +1 (13)
seahawks (12)
# of people that made these teams their best bets in the btp contest . Is the top 5 . The least for this category was of course big dogs falcons and raiders .
USING THE BTP CONTEST TO FORM CONSENSUS WITH REG PICKS PEOPLE MADE :
BENGALS (126)
Cowgirls (78)
Colts (62)
Rams (45)
Packers -1 (43)
S-Hawks (42)
Bears (42)
Broncos(34)
Panthers (31)
note : last week in week 1 using this strategy was 4 - 2 ats with best bets , losers being broncos won but no cover and the super lemon rams .
with the reg picks it went 5 - 2 with the lemons being the same , broncos and rams .
note: this can be a simple greatstrategy if it is a big fav week ats . If it is a dog week then it (can be) catastrophic .
NOTE :I AM NOT SURE IF ANYONE HAS CHECKED OUT THE FAV/DOG COUNT (week by week) of 2006 NFL. I POSTED IT ON ANOTHER THREAD OR IF YOU ALREADY KNOW >>> WOULD BE WISE TO FIND OUT THE #S . TO SEE HOW IT REALLY WORKS,.
FACT >>> THIS IS ALL A NUMBERS GAME . THE FINAL FAV/DOG RESULT FOR THE DAY WILL BE THE DETERMINING FACTOR IN HOW WELL YOU DO , always ................ <> week 2 last year was 10 - 6 favs ats . Only 1 fav won that failed to cover.
Will this CONSENSUS DO WELL OR EVEN RELATE to sept 16th 2007 ? We will see . Read inbetween the lines and crush your book !!! almost forgot , the least picked team for reg picks by people here was the falcons , 9 people here have the vickless birds from ga . ))))))))))))))))))))
A MUST NOTE : in a way I'm sure this strategy is tainted because people on here made soooo many ncaaf picks so that takes away from a TRUE NFL CONSENSUS WITH THE PEOPLE HERE ...................the numbers would be much different had there been only nfl picks to choose from . still ....................Look for a zone and score !
Trying not to jump the gun as the games are not over yet BUT !!!!!!
going by consensus for the best pick value would be on cowgirls and the seahawks for a simple due theory of the final results being 2 - 3 , only 2 of the best bets cash , is a bust to say the least but with the 2 remaining games it is a numbers game and is a realistic result to say they will go 2 - 3, 1 game below 500 , if you dont understand you should try to.Yes they could go 0 - 5 not sayin that is impossible to happen , just read between the lines maybe you will see it .
