NOTES:
-My apologies for last week in which I listed NO BEST BETS. When updating this week's records, I noticed that I had inadvertently updated my excell program for 4 bye-week teams: The Falcons, Packers, Jags, and Titans. The end result is that last week I had two BEST BETS that did not show up: FALCONS and VIKINGS. This week I have double checked to make sure my Program is correct for ALL TEAMS.
-An astute observer will notice a common trend throughout these results: Non-Division Road Dogs and Division Home Faves are ON FIRE including a 12-1 ATS record on Consensus games.
-Take special note of F3-T Level 2. It's record is 4-0. I probably should have this as a level 3. My parameters for level 1 are 0.00-0.99. Level 2 is 1.00-1.50. And it goes up from there. But since F3-T deals with TURNOVERS, I probably should've used increments of 0.5 rather than assuming a full 1.0 before going to the next level in rating. In other words, 1.0-1.5 should probably be considered a Level 3 and not a level 2. Moral of the Story: Keep a close eye on those Level 2's with F3-T. It is 4-0 and this week has the Cards and Chiefs.
-Can't help but notice F3-P (points) is a nifty 16-7 ATS in games with a Level 2> rating. In fact, level 2 by itself is 13-5 ATS. Again, this could be a call for a future adjustment (not this season). Remember, a Level 1 rating is 0.01-2.99 and level 2 is 3.00-5.99. Maybe since Level 2 begins at that crucial "Field Goal" DIF it should warrant a level 3 rating. That would mean levels 1 and 2 would look something like this: Level One: 0.01-0.99; Level 2: 1.00-2.99.
Yeah, I like that. But, again, no changes will be made mid-stream. I only point these things out so that you will not necessarily discount something because it does not carry with it the pre-supposed best bet rating of 3 or higher. Hey, this is all experimental and being done on the run, LIVE against Virgin Data. So I would start giving more credit to the Level 2 or greater with F3-T and F3-P. F3-Y (Yardage) is about right, using increments of 25 Yards and the Level 3 begining at 50.0 in my program.

FORMULA III** [F3]= Name given because it involves the consensus of THREE different formulas; hence, Formula "III", meaning "3".
In REALITY, it is the SAME FORMULA--applied to 3 Different Statistical Categories.
Namely, Net Yardage--hence the name [F3-Y], Net Turnovers--hence the name [F3-T], and Net Points--hence the name [F3-P].
The Formulas use "weighted season averages [WSA]", meaning the afforementioned Net Results are given more weight each game as the season progresses. Each team has a WSA.
A team's last 3 games [L3G] are also given a "weighted average" [WA], but with considerably more emphasis incrementally speaking. Each team has a L3G-WA.
The Formula's "make-up" or "foundation" are grounded in "contrare-style" thought processes, contrasting a team's L3G-WA against their WSA. The end result is the difference [DIF] between how far their L3G-WA is below or above their WSA.
Taking two teams, the team with the LOWER DIF is the preferred play. The "DISTANCE between DIFS"--divided by 2--determine the LEVEL RATING using presumably logical plateau's.
For example, for F3-P (dealing with "points"), seemingly logical plateau's would look something like this:
00.01-2.99 LEVEL ONE: Less than a Field Goal
3.00-5.99 LEVEL TWO: Between 1 FG and 2 FG's
6.00-6.99 LEVEL THREE: Between 2 FG's and a TD
7.00-9.99 LEVEL FOUR: Between 1 TD and a TD/FG (or traditionally "double digits")
10.00> LEVEL FIVE: Atleast a double-digit DIF
With F3-Y and F3-T I have established seemingly obvious plateaus as well.
BEST BETS:
By logical presumption, a BEST BET would first and foremost have to begin with the UNANIMOUS Picks--games in which ALL THREE FORMULAS AGREE on the same side. From there, we would prefer that ATLEAST 1 of the Formulas has a LEVEL 3 Rating or higher.
*All Results throughout are Against the Pointspread
**Although a brief overview of its concept is outlined, the Formula itself is not contained in this writing--only the picks and results.

FORMULA III** [F3]= Name given because it involves the consensus of THREE different formulas; hence, Formula "III", meaning "3".
In REALITY, it is the SAME FORMULA--applied to 3 Different Statistical Categories.
Namely, Net Yardage--hence the name [F3-Y], Net Turnovers--hence the name [F3-T], and Net Points--hence the name [F3-P].
The Formulas use "weighted season averages [WSA]", meaning the afforementioned Net Results are given more weight each game as the season progresses. Each team has a WSA.
A team's last 3 games [L3G] are also given a "weighted average" [WA], but with considerably more emphasis incrementally speaking. Each team has a L3G-WA.
The Formula's "make-up" or "foundation" are grounded in "contrare-style" thought processes, contrasting a team's L3G-WA against their WSA. The end result is the difference [DIF] between how far their L3G-WA is below or above their WSA.
Taking two teams, the team with the LOWER DIF is the preferred play. The "DISTANCE between DIFS"--divided by 2--determine the LEVEL RATING using presumably logical plateau's.
For example, for F3-P (dealing with "points"), seemingly logical plateau's would look something like this:
00.01-2.99 LEVEL ONE: Less than a Field Goal
3.00-5.99 LEVEL TWO: Between 1 FG and 2 FG's
6.00-6.99 LEVEL THREE: Between 2 FG's and a TD
7.00-9.99 LEVEL FOUR: Between 1 TD and a TD/FG (or traditionally "double digits")
10.00> LEVEL FIVE: Atleast a double-digit DIF
With F3-Y and F3-T I have established seemingly obvious plateaus as well.
BEST BETS:
By logical presumption, a BEST BET would first and foremost have to begin with the UNANIMOUS Picks--games in which ALL THREE FORMULAS AGREE on the same side. From there, we would prefer that ATLEAST 1 of the Formulas has a LEVEL 3 Rating or higher.
*All Results throughout are Against the Pointspread
**Although a brief overview of its concept is outlined, the Formula itself is not contained in this writing--only the picks and results.
