The Action Network has developed an elite betting algorithm that targets the NFL Wild Card Round and has fit every game in that round since 2005.
Amazingly, this algorithm has won 65% of the time. A big time hat tip to my colleague Brandon Anderson for developing this system.
The proprietary algorithm has gone 53-25-3 (65% win rate) against the spread over the past 16 seasons and targets only the closing line.
A $500 per game bettor would be up $12,000 overall. That's a 30% annualized return on investment. We don't recommend using this betting algorithm as an alternative to investing — variance is a much sturdier constraint in sports gambling compared to the financial markets — but similar principles apply in regard to gains over a long time horizon.
Cowboys vs. Bucs Pick
This betting algorithm has a list of parameters it targets when selecting a line. Elementally, it targets teams with pedigree and fades teams without it.
