Model: V27.4 (56 features + weather data) Historical Top 3 Win Rate: 83.3% (20/24) Date: November 16, 2025
PICK #1: LAC -2.5 @ Jacksonville
Confidence: 13.1 | Predicted ATS: +13.1 Weather: 47°F, 9mph wind (neutral)
THE CASE FOR LAC
Highest confidence rating of Week 11. The model sees the Chargers beating this spread by double digits - Vegas has this wrong at -2.5.
OFFENSIVE EDGE:
The Chargers are elite at 6.09 yards per play. That 10.1% gap in 3rd down conversion means LAC will dominate possession and keep Jacksonville's offense on the bench.

WEEK 11 PICK #2: BUF -5.5 vs Tampa Bay
Confidence: 12.6 | Predicted ATS: -12.6 Weather: 34°F, 17mph wind - MAJOR FACTOR
THE WEATHER EDGE
This is the story: Buffalo in November vs a Florida team in 34° weather with 17mph winds. Tampa is NOT built for this.
WHY WEATHER MATTERS:
OFFENSIVE FIREPOWER:
Josh Allen at home in November is a different animal.
DEFENSIVE EDGE:
Both teams have strong pass rushes (3.2+ sacks/game), but the cold makes pass protection exponentially harder for Tampa's O-line.
THE BOTTOM LINE: Model predicts Buffalo wins by 18+ points. Expect Tampa to struggle all game with ball handling and execution. Buffalo runs away in the 2nd half.
BET: BUF -5.5 - SAFEST PLAY (weather gives massive edge)

WEEK 11 PICK #3: NE -12.5 vs NY Jets + SUMMARY
Confidence: 12.5 | Predicted ATS: -12.5 Weather: 36°F, 13mph wind
THE CHALK PLAY
Model agrees with Vegas completely here - this is a "confirmation play" where the data says the spread is correct.
OFFENSIVE GAP:
Patriots score 6.6 more points per game. The Jets move the ball (5.92 YPP) but can't finish drives.
DEFENSIVE DOMINANCE:
Patriots will suffocate the Jets' struggling offense.
THE KILLER STAT - PASS RUSH:
The Jets' O-line is a turnstile. Their QB will be running for his life all game.
CAUTION - DIVISIONAL GAME: Yes, AFC East rivals can play each other close. But the Jets are in complete disarray - coaching drama, QB controversy, locker room issues. Patriots are locked in.
THE BOTTOM LINE: NE should pull away in the 2nd half. Expect something like 31-17.
BET: NE -12.5 - SOLID PLAY (but 12.5 is a big number in division games)
SUMMARY & BETTING STRATEGY
Expected Results: 2-3 wins (based on 83.3% historical Top 3 win rate)
Confidence Rankings:
Suggested Unit Distribution:
What Could Go Wrong:
Final Thoughts: All three picks have strong statistical backing. If I could only pick one, it's LAC -2.5 for value or BUF -5.5 for safety. Expect at least 2 of 3 to hit. BOL!
