The interesting result is Jets over the Saints at New Orleans. It was considered an upset. Even the guy who picks for Fox Sports picked that game as the upset. The fact is, both teams are in the same situation as last year. They play better on the road than at home. Go figure!

• Analysis of the results of SPORTS.XLS, the sports betting spreadsheet.
I use in-house sports betting software. It is founded on the same principles as LotWon. Therefore, randomness plays a very important rule in generating combinations. The programs are applicable to parlays. The 5-team parlay software is clearly more successful than the statistical spreadsheet! The programs eliminate certain patterns from previous results and generate lottery-like combinations. The numbers are replaced with team names. The hit rate is better than 2 out of 3 weeks. I haven't encountered two or more consecutive losses. The playing field amounts from 6 to 16 parlays per week. The payout can be as high as 24 to 1 (25% house edge or vigourish). Thus, the worst winning case comes to +8.
