If this guy didn't put any money on the 49ers last night, he's a complete idiot.

A Chiefs fan had a chance to cash out a $10 parlay for $23,000 but risked it all on the Rams for the chance to win $74,000. It didn't turn out well for him.

If you put down a $10 bet and had a 50-50 chance to win $74,000 but a 100 percent ability to take home $23,000, which would you choose?

That's a question Chiefs fan Taylor Denney had to answer on Sunday night after the Chiefs beat the Buccaneers and all but one of the picks in his parlay remained.

He chose the first option, putting all his faith in the Los Angeles Rams to beat the San Francisco 49ers and make him $74,702.67 richer.

 
Football Outsiders has released their stats, so @FAUlty Gator better be hard at work with his analysis stuff! From what I remember, I was able to put together a couple MASSIVE mismatches from looking over the stats, neither of these are a surprise:

Can’t wait to see what Coach Faulty comes up with!
Just a taste before I apply the lines and such. Ignore the numbers between games. Just used them to help sort the table.

And here we go. Leaving time for adjustments, injuries, weather and other changes, of course. But this is the early system picks.

I really should take a class or watch videos on Microsoft Excel (I know the basics), because I would love to adjust these ratings for opponents. As the season goes on they’ll certainly even out, but it’s such a short season so I feel like schedule strength might really mess with some of these numbers when they’re first released.

That being said, it’s such an awesome system, and thank you again for putting all of this together!
 
And just for Fun I did an NFL one using Pass and Run DVOA Offense and Defense. I think I will use this more for Draft Kings and lineups than I will games but who knows!?!?

These are rankings so lower the number the better.

Might go with 1Q no TD +170. I've had success with betting no TD in a quarter this year and it's always decent + money. Looked back through the acct and I'm 3-0 on those +$572. A friend got me on them last year and I know I finished +$700 for the year. Probably playing with fire now.

I’m waffling. I was looking at SJSU’s efficiency numbers and I think they’re getting docked big time by playing FCS Portland State in week 1.

However…UNLV generates a good pass rush and SJSU gives up sacks.

OK, I’m in. The Rebels are disruptive. Let’s roll!
 
Alright! Here’s what I’m on tomorrow!

Iowa/Illinois UNDER 36.5
Michigan 1H -13.5
Tenn/LSU U64.5
TCU -7 (sorry Kansas, you’ve already been a rock star for me, and I will always appreciate you! But I think this is the week the shoe drops)
Wisconsin 1H -6.5
Va Tech TT UNDER 13.5
OSU TT OVER 45.5
Duke -3.5
Utah St. +10.5
JMU/Arkansas St. UNDER 55.5
App St. 1H -10.5
UTEP +3
aTm TT UNDER 12.5
Oregon TT OVER 41.5
Oregon St. -5

Good luck everyone!

Bama game was a no play due to backup QB and probably will be going forward until Young is healthy.

5 unit games- 1-1
4 unit games- 2-0
3 unit games - 3-1
2 unit games- 3-2
1 unit games- 1-0

I need to trust the system. I picked three losers and my brain is just all scrambled right now.
 
Had a nice little rebound last night and today after some early typical good teams losing to bad teams for no real reason (other than to keep me from winning money....) on Saturday.

Probably would've won less today had the Packers decided that being up 17-7 was just too much to handle against the mighty Giants, as I wouldn't have made as many bets chasing the $10 4 leg parlay I lost...........because of the Packers.

Also, had to sweat out the final drive of that Bengals-Ravens game. Rooting for both teams to score to cover the Over 35.5 portion of my parlay was fun....
