ModeratorHello Chris,
This strategy gives you the best chance of taking first place or being in the money in the week. You do risk being lower in the overall standings if it doesn’t hit though (which it won’t much of the time, but it hits more often than you would think). So it’s a balance of how much risk you want to take. Bigger leagues need more risk, if you’re behind in the standings anyway, you can take a bigger risk. If you’re up, or if you’re in a smaller league, then yes you probably want to dial that down a bit.Joey De la Pena
ModeratorHello Paul, thanks for pointing that out! The numbers were swapped, the correct ones are Some Risk: 86 and High Risk: 97. I’ve updated the post as well.

ModeratorHello Steven, I totally get what you mean. On Wednesday, CAR was one of our risk pick candidates, but since NO had the higher $Score at that time, it was the one shown in the suggested picks table. Then on Friday’s update, CAR actually moved up with the highest $Score, so it became the suggested pick in the update. Hopefully that clears it up a bit.

ModeratorHello Dennis, the $ Score feature highlights picks with a higher win probability but a lower percentage of people choosing them.

ModeratorHello Dominic, bright green is when you want to take a bigger risk. This is a team that’s not very good and probably doesn’t have many wins available in a season, but this is their best chance of winning a game.

ModeratorHello Justin,
Yes, instead of Saturday, we sent the update on Friday.

ModeratorHello Carl, Last week’s analysis showed no upsets, but after the games, the underdogs came through, with the Washington Commanders and Buffalo Bills pulling off the wins.

ModeratorHello Shane, there’ll be no against the spread picks. Hope you checked our latest updates on our Divisional Round picks.

ModeratorHello Dominic, we’ll be announcing soon before the next fall.

ModeratorHello TJ, the $ score is something we’re testing out and it’s based on higher win prob and lowest % picked.

ModeratorHello Stix, yes, they take into account players who are not playing. Thank you! We’re so pleased our analysis has been helpful to you.

ModeratorHello Jim, in the third column of the suggested picks, we typically choose one medium-risk pick, and in this case, the Rams. While the Texans were also considered as a solid option, selecting two medium-risk picks ultimately depends on your strategy or personal reference. I hope this helps. Thanks!

ModeratorHello Michael, we’re sorry for the confusion. The symbols for that column didn’t work same as last time, it showed “@” most of the matchups. We’ll fix it. Thanks!

ModeratorHello Paul, I’d like to inform you that the picks are high reward, but also high risk. There’s also a chance of a bad score. The strategy is to not be in the middle. Please check the link below about the explanation of the money picks: “What is a money pick?”
Moreover, if you want to shoot for lower risk stay with the base picks more often. If you’re already down, you might as well keep taking higher risks.
Joey De la Pena
ModeratorHello Carl, The $score points only appear if a team is classified as High or Medium Risk pick, indicating that the matchup has potential for an upset. Higher scores indicate stronger picks and a promising chance of an upset.
