Data are sometimes noisy, but they are never wrong. (It's our models that are wrong!) @BillRoth_ Ed Wheatcroft [email protected]



Stefan presenting work we're doing together, looking at Transfermarkt.co.uk data. So here's our collective gloom as #oafc and #iron fans respectively.





Home-win #Probability #Forecast: #NFL Week 1 Favorite Unclear in 4 games, #CLEvsCAR Called Closest. One Lone Wolf game #GBvsMIN Forecaster's probability high on Indianapolis Colts in #INDvsHOU; insight or week 1 over-confidence again? Model Inadequacy flag on Elo #DENvsSEA, a silly input?


Home-win #Probability #Forecasts for #NFL Week 2 #LACvsKC tonight & each forecaster on our list favors the Kansas City Chiefs over Los Angeles Chargers in #ChiefsvsChargers. What does the alignment in these probabilistic predictions really tell us? #statistics #maths #DataAnalytics #DataScientists


Home-win #Probability #Forecasts for #NFL Week 3. #LVvsTEN called closest game. Four Lonewolf games including cynthia frelund in #GBvsTB , she remains significantly ahead of all others even though noone lost points on #TNF and most reduced the gap.





Home-Win #Probability #Forecasts for 2022 #NFL Week 7 cynthia frelund lone wolf in #NYGvsJAX , now “Called Closest” Strong agreement on Tampa Bay Buccaneers as last week, how does this inform #TBvsCAR? Why did I move to 0.49 in #NYJvsDEN given my true belief is 0.50 and IGN a proper score?


Home-Win #Probability #Forecast for Week 9 of the 2022 #NFL Season. #LVvsJAX called closest, while ESPN Stats & Info and cynthia frelund usually confident on #TENvsKC and #BUFvsNYJ respectively. All forecasters favour Buffalo Bills and Kansas City Chiefs with a geometric average near 80%.


Home-Win #Probably #Forecasts: 2022 #NFL Week 10 Only two games with agreed heavy favourites: #JAXvsKC and #WASvsPHI . cynthia frelund a lone wolf: Arizona Cardinals in #ARIvsLAR. ESPN Stats & Info model finally draws a purple light for pre-game model instability, not for its low score. Why?



Week 16 #NFL Home-Win #Probability #Forecasts cynthia frelund outside (more confident than) oddschecker in #LVvsPIT !


New academic year. New #NFL season tonight. New Home-win Forecasting App. Working with #VT students to practice decision making and uncertainty guidance, as they feel the risk of forecasting the probability of a how-win for #Chiefs in #BALvKC @VTECE Ed Wheatcroft Sports Data Analytics Club
