I don't know if that is clear above. If you took the game on the first line it shows Miami is a 2.5 point favorite over the Jets. It shows Miami was the 3rd most popular selection with 84 players laying the points. Also on the first line it shows the Jets were the 20th most popular selection with 39 players selecting them to cover the number.

Not sure if there is any value in any of this but it may be interesting to some. I have heard if you bet the top 5 plays each week you will make money historically but I have no proof of that. Personally I'd be more inclined to take the 5 least popular plays.

I can do that. If anyone played the top 5 they went 3-2. Not huge but pulled a profit.

some weeks you will win and some you will get hammered just like any other person picking games. NFL reqires no skill at all, it is a roll of the dice period.
