Yes, I know they stink, but this query spurred me into action:
HD and line > 4.7 and n:AF and o:losses = 0 and week > 1.5
SU: 8-13-0 (-2.43, 38.1%)
ATS: 16-4-1 (5.40, 80.0%)
Home Dogs of at least 5 points that should be Away Favorites in their games currently facing undefeated opponents in Weeks 2+ win SU 38.1% and cover 80% of the games. The average cover margin is 5.40 points.
I took NYJ +7/-108 and CLV +7/-114 for 1.5 units each. Good luck everybody.

That should be "Away Favorites in their next games." Sorry about that

You are correct to be skeptical. These are next game's projected lines based on Jeff Sagarin's power ratings: CLV -2.29 @ IND, and NYJ +2.73 @ NYG. The Sports Database projected lines are unreliable and I should have checked Sagarin before placing the wagers.
However, if "n:AF" is removed from jowchoo's improved query in Comment #7 CLV and NYJ would still be favored to cover:
ATS: 78-58-5 (0.80, 57.4%) Unfortunately, I don't consider this adjusted query to be actionable because I prefer an ATS margin of 3+ points and a winning percentage of 59% to allow for potential regression in favorable queries. Well, I am stuck with my 1.5 unit wagers. Let's see what happens.

Eagles gonna tush push there way to a W and cover over the Jets this Sunday. I enjoy you're work, excellent angles and data %
I bet Philly -6.5 on Monday. They have to many weapons. Great defense, big linemen O & D, big time wide receivers and a strong running game and control time of possession. Hurtz and Philly playing great right now.
I also saw you're on Indy Colts, as am I. I MLed them against the Jags. Good Luck

I see SF is all the way up to -9.5 at Scores and Odds. Heritage has taken that game off the board. My CLV -7/-114 is a horrendously lousy line.
According the ESPN's CLV depth chart, these players are all listed as Questionable: Watson, Tillman, Njoku, Bitonio, Pocic and Garrett. This game will certainly test my "Injuries Are Bullshxt" theory.

why would injuries ever be bullshit? maybe if its a nobody and the next man up is on a similar level then sure. but if a key player goes down, like a linemen or qb, this always factors into the line and power rating of the team. there can be a very large disparity from a 1st string high caliber 8 year veteran guard having to be replaced by a 2nd year practice squad with 2 career starts guard. i would only give less value to injuries if its on the defensive side (unless its important cb/lb like how bills just lost theirs and now their playoff hopes are dwindling according to many)

Because the line is moved to reflect loss of talent (this SF-CLV matchup certainly shows that), and the healthy team may be overconfident and sleep through game film reviews. Sometimes the healthy team will show up flat on game day.
I do not say this works all of the time (I only bet 1.5 units on CLV, not 4). The Cavaliers were not not better with Kevin Love on the bench with a dislocated shoulder, but they did manage to knock off the Celtics as a big road dog.
Good luck, DLS.
