NFL 2024 – Week 4 Pick Results & Spread Data

NFL 2024 – Week 4 Pick Results & Spread Data

Against The Spread  9 – 6 – 1

Season 36 – 26 – 2

After a blistering start to Sunday, the Algorithm loss Sunday night and both Monday Night games to settle in at 9 – 6 – 1 for the week.  At one point on Sunday it was 7 – 1 – 1, so if you played the early games, you did very well courtesy of the Algorithm.  Week 5 is the first week in which ALL power ratings, spread and predictions are derived entirtely from 2024 stats.

Thus, please use a bit more caution and verify Algorithm selections with other handicapping sources.  As always, remember the Algorithm bases everything on statistics.  It cannot see or take into account injuries, weather, and non numeric factors.

Pick of the Week – Denver +7.5 @ NY Jets

The Algorithm is still riding the Vikings, who won again as a +2.5 road underdog, but the pick of the week has to be taking the Broncos +7.5 @ NY Jets.  In a driving rainstorm, Denver went into NY, blitzed Aaron Rodgers, and came away with a 10 – 9 win.  It wasn’t pretty, Bo Nix had -7 yards passing at halftime on 7 completions….yes, -7 yards on 7 completions.

When you can tie the worst passing yardage total of all time at halftime and still come out with a straight up win with 7.5 point dogs, you get Pick of the Week.

Punk of the Week – Buffalo +2.5 @ Baltimore

Well this went fairly poorly.  There really isn’t too much to write about when you lose by 25 points geting +2.5.  At least the loss was fairly quick and painless.  Baltimore finally looked like the Ravens of 2023, their pass defense showed up for at least one game to stifle Josh Allen.  I think Buffalo just burns the film of this one and moves on.  It was a clunker.
