Sunday, October 4, 2020 — NFL Prediction & Pick
The model leans Tampa Bay Buccaneers primarily because of advantages in Market line and Form. The projected margin is TB by 6.4 points. That lean is driven mainly by market line and form. Context pulls the other way.
On balance, more tracked inputs leaned Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2 edges vs 1 for Los Angeles Chargers).
The model's lean lines up with that edge count. The score model and the raw stat comparison point the same way.
Market line is a large contribution and supports TB by about 3.6 points of margin. The market spread feature is -7.5.
Form is a large contribution and supports TB by about 0.6 points of margin. Points scored per game: TB 28.0, LAC 19.6.
Context pulls the other way and favors LAC by about 0.5 points of margin.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers -7.5 (Matchbook) | O/U 42.5 (Matchbook)
Los Angeles Chargers 31, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 38 — Tampa Bay Buccaneers win — Model pick was correct
