Longtime RX lurker since 2003.

I actually got a copy of Game9000’s awesome book three years ago…anyone else?. So glad I was able to procure that spiral-bound book of his historical gambling observations when I did now that’s he’s gone. It’s a wealth of knowledge! Dude was a mathematical mad scientist and savant - how he came up with the points system is beyond me but it was a very good approach once patterns started to form for that particular season around weeks 4-5.

Pieface, you’ll absolutely be my new favorite poster on the RX if you can provide final 2023 #’s to start 2024. If you do this, I commit to starting a 2024 #’s thread to honor Game9000 and his gambling legacy and keeping it going next year here on the RX.

Deal?
That is Great JimmyTiger.!!! I don't know if he had anymore printed up or not, I would like to get a copy of it. I know his Daughter posted when he passed, I wonder if she would know.. I really miss him,! reading his mathematical madness was the Best... RIP GAME.!!!

Careful guys.

The dogs are just 9-9 ATS over the last three years in the Wildcard round. I just did the homework.

Home dogs are 1-2 ATS
Typically wildcard rounds have consistently gone under but last year the script flipped think overs hit 5 out of 6 I will have to confirm that going off memory

fast start system / 20 point system / point differential for teams in playoffs

Bal 6 of 6, +17 (point differential +196)
SF 6 of 6, +12 (point differential +193)
Clev 4 of 6, +10 (point differential +34)
Hous 5 of 6, +5, (+24)
Miami 4 of 6, +2 (+105)
KC 6 of 6, +12 (+77)
Phil 6 of 6, 0 (+5)
TB 5 of 6, +9 (+23)
Pitt 2 of 6, +10 (-20)
Buff 6 of 6, +12 (+140)
GB 5 of 6, +3 (+33)
Dall 6 of 6, +17 (+194)
Rams 5 of 6, 0 (+19)
Det 6 of 6, +2 (+66)

wildcard angles, pertaining to this weekend's games, from GAME posted over the years,

Wildcard games where both teams failed to make the playoffs the previous year, home team 4-14 su and 2-16 ats since 2006. Play on Cleveland and Rams.

Wildcard dogs playing an opponent who missed playoffs previous season, 12-1 last 5 years. Play on Houston and Rams. Cleveland and Houston eliminate each other.

NFL playoffs weekend - home favs less than -3 are 1-8-1 ats. Watch the Detroit line at -3, if it should drop by gametime Sunday night, that would be a play on the Rams.

After all this, looks like the Rams would be a play.

Thanks Pieface for posting all this info. Are you going to have the final #'s on all the teams after the regular season ended? SDS used to post them but doesn't seem like he's around anymore, appreciate your time and effort for posting this info and if you have the final numbers for each team can you post them. I'd like to post the numbers for each team every week like Game and Sds posted. Again, Thank You Very Much Pieface

I added Off/Def EPA (Expected Points Added) which is a analytical team statistic to the Fast Start system. My objective was to use the 6/6 fast start teams in conjunction with EPA to help determine a Super Bowl matchup, also keeping in the back of my mind the 5/6 fast start teams.

Last season using EPA along with the fast start system produced a KC/PHI Super Bowl matchup. This season they both have produced a SF/BUFF matchup. The EPA graph and 6/6, 5/6 remaining fast start teams are below.

The EPA chart is using ONLY weeks 1-4 because that's the guidline for the Fast Start system. You'll notice in the chart Miami is the top team but don't qualify due to having a 4/6 fast start result.

6/6
1Baltimore
1San Francisco
2Buffalo
3Kansas City
3Detroit


5/6
4Tampa Bay
4Houston
7Green Bay

Here's the week 1-4 EPA chart from last season that I mentioned that produced a KC/PHI Super Bowl Matchup of 6/6, 5/6 Fast Start teams.

At Circa the Super Bowl Exacta odds are...

SF defeat BUFF +700
BUFF defeat SF +1000

...I bet them both but a little more on BUFF winning at +1000. I hope some of you find this useful. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.

Wildcard wkend - bet the dogs

Week - bet the faves
Dogs went 3-1 on WC weekend....pretty standard.

Time to hammer the faves


Baltimore in a blowout - 20+ points

San Fran -9 - Packers keep it close for the 1st half, Niners roll in the 2nd covering the number - Niners healthy again

Detroit - lines seems pretty accurate, although I could see them stumble here as Detroit always does

Buffalo gets revenge - lay the points

what if neither team makes the SB? Loser or no bet?

Have to wonder supporting GB or TB, having slaughtered NFE teams Dallas and Philly that both massively imploded. I cannot give them a lot of credit for their wins.

It's a shame...the Saints totally annihilated the Bucs in week 16. So much better a team than they are.
