Just some cleanup on last season here at Get The Cover, it was the 3rd season I posted all my plays here and by percentage it was the worst season so far.
2016 Review (all plays posted on Get The Cover)
2016 Regular Season: 53-37-3
2017 Playoffs: 3-3
2016-2017 NFL Season Overall (Playoffs and Reg Season) : 56 – 40- 3 or 53%
While 53% isn’t terrible the goal is to cross the 55% bar annually and we missed it by a couple of plays. I dug in a little deeper to see how the bets last year broke down and basically it was a great year betting underdogs and pretty awful betting everything else.
Bet Type | Wins | Losses | Pushes | Win % |
Underdog | 29 | 14 | 2 | 64.4% |
Favorite | 13 | 15 | 1 | 44.8% |
Under | 5 | 5 | 0 | 50.0% |
Over | 4 | 3 | 0 | 57.1% |
Teaser | 3 | 3 | 0 | 50.0% |
Pick’em | 2 | 0 | 0 | 100.0% |
Total | 56 | 40 | 3 | 52.8% |
This may be just an anomaly I do not remember having splits this dramatic in previous years but will be something to pay attention to this year.
