2011 NFL Point Spread Picks Week 14

Pick 1: New Orleans -3.5 correct NFL point spread pick
Pick 2: St Louis +9.5 incorrect NFL point spread pick
Pick 3: San Francisco -4 incorrect NFL point spread pick
Pick 4: Houston +3 correct NFL point spread pick

As we continue to sink this ship, I think less about these picks and whether they are good or not. The only thing I'm thinking about is what can I learn this year that I would be able to apply statistically into the algorithm.

If I think about these picks, I would probably stay away from Houston because all the injuries and St Louis because they've covered very few times this year. But most times that I say things like that the opposite happens. We'll stick with these 4 visiting teams and bet they will all win big and give us, believe it or not, our first winning week.

This week we'll up at 20% of bankroll. Giving us $100 per game for a total of $400.

I made a slight change in my model based on some of the struggles so far this season (and back tested the change, of course). I have Cowboys -3 and Falcons -3 for this week so far.
