We go 1-4 ATS for the week in the NFL, 106-79 ATS for the season.
Not a very good week, we'll see if things go better this week.
Angles.....
a) Away divisional dogs in 2022 that have lost their last two away games have been 17-1 ATS this season,.......they went 2-1 ATS this past weekend, with wins on the Dolphins and Broncos and a loss with the Bears. This week the indicated teams are the Rams, Cardinals, Jets and Titans.
season=2022 and AD and DIV and tS(W@A, N=2)=0
Plays:
1) Jets +3
2) Lions +3'
3) Titans +6'
4) Steelers -1 (played it last week)
5) Bears +2' (played last week)
Carson Wentz had a terrible game for the Commanders and it will mean that no team will want to take a chance on him again, and it could mean the end of his career....it is kind of sad, but he is a multimillionaire who is set for life, so that I suppose is the silver lining for him. Gardner Minshew had a meltdown, and perhaps I was totally wrong in my assessment of him. The Eagles definitely will need to get Hurts onto the field this weekend.
The Fortyniners have bypassed the Vikings and are currently the second seed, and it would be a pretty big surprise if they didn't end up with at least the second seed. They could have two straight home games in the playoffs if they get past their first round opponent. Brock Purdy looks like a blessing in disguise for San Fran as he is a better quarterback than either of the two qbs that were lined up ahead of him going into the season.
Teams like SF on a streak going into the playoffs make me nervous, as typically the better performing playoff teams are those that start fast and then coast into the playoffs, often losing one or two in December like the Eagles have. This year there are quite a few teams streaking going into the playoffs and I would not be shocked if they get knocked out in the playoffs.
After researching teams on streaks, the team with the longer winning streak and the better winning percentage in the playoffs have only been 35-49 ATS, covering 41.7% of the time and winning straight up 60% of the time.....if that winning streak is three or more games this drops to 25-41-2 ATS, 37.9%
playoffs=1 and streak>o:streak and tA(W)>oA(W) and streak>2
Have a blessed new year......
