only 50% with my approach in two weeks of the nfl action, which is not great compared to what i've done with this approach in two weeks of college. however, i'm not panicking because i know that i need more data to win this system and the data that i've gathered so far in the nfl is close to what i had in week 3 or 4 in the ncaa...so, more time needed and i expect the nfl to turn profit for me starting next week.

here is what i already said about this mnf game and i will add more systems and stats later today....i'll repeat, my approach needs more time and data to start winning big, so be carefull if you are following. even though this is my strongest play ytd (most confident), i do not recommend to bet more $ than usual yet.



minnesota @ new orleans
play: MINNESOTA +3.5 *B*



i have new orleans rated 14 places better and that fact alone puts them in a 2-10 ats group this week. they are also the biggest public play (by far) in that group and that too situate them on top of the group. they are 1-3 su and 1-3 teams as underdogs of 2-8 points are 40-20 ats in last 60. minnesota was in the same group of teams last week, but they failed, simply because they turned the ball over too many times and because they were outcoached by tennesse. i doubt that the linemakers will make such a big mistake on the same team two weeks in a row, especially with this beeing the nationally televized mnf game. new orleans at home vs teams w/less wins is 0-4 su in last 4, 1-6 su in last 7, 4-12 su in last 16, 0-4 ats in last 4, 1-8 ats in last 9, 3-18 ats in last 21 and 1-9 su and 0-10 ats if favored by less than 7 against those teams. i like this desperate minnesota team to win this game outright.

a lot more to come...

1-3 teams


minnesota is one of those 1-3 teams that can run well and also stop the run well. these teams have been the best when desperate at 1-3. especially when not getting their first win the previous week.

1-3 teams that have at least 384 yards on the ground ytd vs less than 583 rushing yards by the opponents, on a losing streak, vs teams after 1+ win are 22-0-1 ats.

minnesota is actually much better than that in rushing yards vs op. rushing yards ytd with +279 yds.

1-3 teams after loss vs any team after a win are 38-9-3 ats and 37-13 su in last 50 if not 7+ underdogs.

minnesota lost last week and new orleans won, minnesota is not a 7+ underdog in this one.

minnesota started 1-3 last season and then won against chicago.


new orleans lost 6 straight when at .500, inlcuding 3 as favorites and went 1-5 ats in the process. they also lost 3 straight and 7/8 when at .500 after a win.

they lost 8 straight when at .500, and when facing a team with less wins. (also 1-8 ats in last 9 in this spot).

all 4 defenses that minnesota has faced so far this season are better than new orleans defense. two of those four are top 5 in the national football league (tennessee and carolina).

minnesota has struggled with the passing offense but is that a surprise when you are run-oriented + your passing offense faces top passing defenses in the league ? ( carolina is #3 against the pass, indianapolis is #4, tennesse is #7 and green bay is #11). new orleans is nowhere close to these teams as they are ranked #29 in passing defense and they only faced 1 top 10 passing offense this season.

new orleans passing offense is #1 in the nation and that is a major concern for minnesota backers here.

however, minnesota passing D has already seen P.Manning, A.Rodgers and J.Delhomme so far this season and they are stil ranked #16 against the pass.

last week k.collins had his worst qb rating up to that game against this minnesota passing d, the week before that j.delhomme had his second worst qb rating in all 5 games played this season, and in week 2 p.manning had his second worst qb rating in all 4 games played so far this season.

in 4 games played this season, the vikings allowed 2 passing td and had 2 interceptions. they've not allowed a td pass in last two games.

new orleans already lost Shockey and Colston and now they are also without Patten. Not a huge loss, but stil, one weapon less for D.Brees.

last week vs sf d.brees was under 66% of completion rate for the first time this season. and sf passing defense is awfull.

minnesota rushing defense is as good as it was last year, if not better. in last 3 games they allowed 76 yards on 34 carries against tennessee, 47 yards on 20 carries against carolina, 25 yards on 19 carries against the colts. all 4 rushing offenses that minnesota has faced this season are better than new orleans' rushing offense.

minnesota turned the ball over 4 times last week and lost the game despite outrushing and outpassing tennessee. prior to that they had only 1 turnover in each of their first three games. what happened to minnesota last week is basically the same thing that happens to everyone who plays tennessee this season. that defense is physicall, and creates turnovers like no other defense.


new orleans is dead last in the league with 5.22 yards per carry allowed. not a good news for a team that will see a.peterson tonight. a.peterson is averaging just over 5 yards per carry so far this season and we haven't seen the best a.peterson yet. against a defense like the one hes gonna face tonight, i expect him to have his best game this season.

new orleans is ranked better than minnesota according to my ratings, they are a very public play and they are in a group of teams that includes:

new england vs kc (L ats)
jacksonville vs houston (L ats)
pittsburgh vs houston (W ats)
chicago vs tb (L ats)
buffalo vs oakland (L ats)
sd vs carolina (L ats)
dallas vs washington (L ats)
denver vs new orleans (L ats)
kc vs oakland (L ats)
seattle vs sf (L ats)

that group of teams obviously went 1-9 ats and new orleans tonight is by far the most public team of them all.

"the public" loves teams that throw the ball a ton thus 75% hitting NO as a small home favorite tonight.

AP running great this year and NO without Ellis up front who has started all 4 games at DT. Minn #7 rush offense and #3 rush defense in league. NO allowing a league-worst 5.2 ypc

gotta love a dog that can run the ball and stop the run (steelers sun night for example...)

new orleans was a big public play last week and they are a big public play again this week. teams that have 60+ % of bets on them and they cover are only 3-10-1 ats in the next week so far this season.

during the arena football season i posted in one of my threads the exact numbers for last year and in both college and pro football this was a good situation to fade the public team. i belive that in both pro and college football this situation was close to 70% last season.

minnesota is two games under .500 and new orleans is at .500.

minnesota lost their last game and new orleans won its last game.

we are in week 5.


.500 teams after winning 1 or 2 straight, favored by less than 4 are only 3-15 su and ats against teams 1 or 2 games under .500 after a loss in weeks 5 to 17.

minnesota can afford tons of passing attempts by new orleans as long as they run more often than the saints. minnesota is 22-5 ats in last 27 when having more rushing attempts and less passing attempts than their opponents. also 22-0 ats in last 22 in this situation if dogs of 3 or more.

the saints can't afford to have more passing attempts and less rushing attemps than the vikings as they are 0-10 straight up and against the spread in last 10 in that situation.
