A big part of my success is
creating angles and trends that few other handicappers use.
One of those angles is keeping
track of what teams do after they play a specific opponent.
Some teams, especially those with
tough defenses (See Arizona below) tend to beat up a team to the point the team
struggles the following week.
Some teams are marquee matchups
and there is a letdown for the following weeks foe.
Some teams are so easy to play it
is like a week off and their opponents are fresh the next week.
Like most handicapping trends, 99%
of the work is for naught as the percentage is not good enough to use, or bad
enough to go against.
Oh but that 1% is worth it!
I have broken down what teams do
against the spread each individual NFL squad. Home, away and overall for the
NFC.
I will post the AFC Numbers next
week.
Please note some of the Overall
numbers will not jive with the Home and Away numbers due to pushes and
byes.
Have a good week and I hope what
you read here today produces a nifty little windfall.
