The model picked 0 of 1 winners, the same as the market. One week is far too few games to show an edge, so read this as a progress report.

Times are Brisbane (AEST). The bar splits at each side's chance of winning, in team colours, away side on the left.
The model's yards for each player next to his average this season, biggest differences first. That gap is where the model and a bookie's line are most likely to disagree. Type the bookie's line to see the model's chance of the over and the under.
Regular starters with three or more games this season (at least 20 rushing or receiving yards a game, or 120 passing), in games still to play. Sorted by the gap measured against how much that player's yards usually swing. The model's yardage numbers were tested on 2022 to 2025 seasons against what players actually did, but not yet against bookmakers' lines, so treat a big gap as a reason to look, not a sure thing.
Winning margin for the home side, in points. The further apart the two dots, the more the model disagreed with the market. Widest gaps first.
Combinations priced by the model. The fair price is the odds that would break even if the model is right; a bookmaker will offer less.
Longer odds than a single bet, and every extra leg is another chance to lose.
These are the games where the model and market disagree. The market is usually the better judge, so the Prediction Log is the test of whether this is an edge or noise.
Touchdown scoring is high-variance. Treat as entertainment, not a strategy.
Every extra leg multiplies the chance of losing, and a bookmaker's margin is built into each leg. These are probabilities from a model, not tips. If gambling is a problem for you or someone you know, Gambling Help is on 1800 858 858.

Games where the model's total differs most from the posted line, with the points actually scored.
On average the model projects 0.4 points a game below the market. Totals use team statistics only, so they do not drop when a quarterback is ruled out.
Ranked best to worst going into this week. 50 is an average team, and each point of rating is worth about a fifth of a point on the scoreboard. Ratings update with this week’s results when the next week is built. Arrows show the move since last week. Tap a team for its page.
Player ratings blend this season with 2025 and 2024. The weight at each position was set by testing how well the first three weeks plus earlier years predicted the rest of 2024 and 2025.

|---|---|---|---|
| RB | 0.25 | about 0% | about 0% |

History is predictive for pass rushers, interior linemen, linebackers and safeties. For running backs, receivers, tight ends and corners last year adds almost nothing, so this season's form leads. Team ratings carry over 45% of 2025's margin, weighted like eight games of 2026 data.

If a bookmaker offers more than the fair price, the price is better than the model thinks it should be; most prices will be shorter because of the bookmaker's margin. Tested on 3,072 player-games from 2025: players rated 20–30% scored 26% of the time, those rated 40–50% scored 47%. Players ruled out are excluded and questionable players are flagged.
The bar covers the middle 80% of simulated games; the coloured mark is the midpoint. Wide bars are normal: yardage swings a lot from week to week.
Ranges come from testing these projections on 38,722 player-games in 2024 and 2025. The typical miss was 60 yards passing, 25 rushing and 23 receiving. Set your own over and under lines in the Parlay builder.

The model is in line with the market. Treat a gap as a prompt to check team news, not as an edge: across 3,663 back-tested games since 2012, the side the model favoured against the spread covered 49% of the time, no better than a coin.

If a bookmaker offers more than the fair price, the price is better than the model thinks it should be; most prices will be shorter because of the bookmaker's margin. Tested on 3,072 player-games from 2025: players rated 20–30% scored 26% of the time, those rated 40–50% scored 47%. Players ruled out are excluded and questionable players are flagged.
The bar covers the middle 80% of simulated games; the coloured mark is the midpoint. Wide bars are normal: yardage swings a lot from week to week.
Ranges come from testing these projections on 38,722 player-games in 2024 and 2025. The typical miss was 60 yards passing, 25 rushing and 23 receiving. Set your own over and under lines in the Parlay builder.

The rest of the schedule played out 20,000 times from today's team ratings. The 49ers reach the playoffs most often, in 96% of those seasons.
The playoff field the 20,000 simulated seasons point to most often, and how often each team goes all the way. Every simulated season plays out the playoffs too: 2 v 7, 3 v 6, 4 v 5, then the top seed meets the lowest seed left.
The Jaguars would have the bye.
The 49ers would have the bye.
Seeds use records only; the league's tie-breakers are not modelled. Playoff games use each simulated season's ratings and home field for the higher seed; the Super Bowl is neutral.
Projected wins and the share of simulated seasons in which each team makes the playoffs or wins its division. Tap a team for its remaining games.
Seven teams from each conference qualify: four division winners and three wild cards. Ties on wins are split at random because the league's tie-breakers are not modelled. Ratings are allowed to be wrong by about 4 points a game in either direction, an assumption that has not been back-tested. Standings include Week 6; ratings are refreshed with those games when the next week is built.

Questionable players in finished games who then appeared in the box score, against the chance of playing the model assumed.
The marker is the model's assumed chance, measured on 2023–25 snap counts. A player counts as having played here only if he recorded a statistic, so backups who took a few snaps are missed and the real rates are somewhat higher. Offensive linemen, kickers and punters are left out because they do not record statistics. One week is too few players to judge the assumption.
Every club ordered by the points its injuries cost this week. The solid bar is this week's report and the lighter bar is players on injured reserve. Tap a team for its list.
No one with a game status.
Points are the model's cost at kick-off: the drop to the replacement multiplied by the chance the player misses. Players with no game status are treated as playing. The Cardinals and Falcons and Ravens and Bills and Panthers and Bears and Browns and Cowboys and Packers and Texans and Colts and Jaguars and Chiefs and Rams and Chargers and Raiders and Patriots and Saints and Giants and Jets and Eagles and Steelers and 49ers and Buccaneers and Titans and Commanders play on Monday night, so their statuses came out a day later than the model's inputs, and their costs were set from practice participation.
Every player rated 1 to 99: his place among the league's regular players at his position, so a 90 is as rare at corner as at receiver. Under it, the model's own figure: points a game he is worth over a replacement-level player.

Predictions are fixed before kick-off from the final injury reports. "Spread" and "Total" compare the model's side with the market line at the time.
Every week from 2012 to 2025 replayed through the model, using only what was known at the time. Settings were tuned on 2012 to 2020 and judged on 2021 to 2025, seasons the tuning never saw.
| Held-out seasons 2021 to 2025, 1,359 games | Winners picked | Brier score | Margin miss | Model's side v the spread | Total-points miss |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Model before the back-test | 62.8% | 0.2266 | 10.21 | 49.5% | 11.66 |
| Model after the changes | 64.7% | 0.2184 | 10.05 | 49.6% | 10.47 |
| Market closing line | 66.7% | 0.2117 | 9.75 | – | 10.31 |
| Average miss, lower is better | Before | After | Player-games |
|---|---|---|---|
| Touchdown scorers (Brier score) | 0.1598 | 0.1572 | 17,283 |
| Rushing yards | 25.02 | 24.42 | 3,761 |
| Receiving yards | 22.41 | 22.19 | 10,859 |
| Passing yards | 60.52 | 59.28 | 2,072 |
These are simulated results, not live picks. Every week was predicted using only games already played. The back-test covers the team model and the quarterback term; the full injury model could not be replayed, though a separate check supported its size. Lower is better for the Brier score and both miss columns.
Each week the assumptions are checked against the results. A setting only changes when several seasons of evidence move it, not on one week alone.
