I was curious about the results of Stram's formula for the upcoming game. I know that early on when Stram created the formula it was very successful in the 20th century but when the game became passing centric it spit out the wrong team and missed on several occasions. He was no longer here to tweak his system and knowing him, he would have done a good job bringing it up to speed.
DISCLAIMER: I provide this for entertainment purposes only. Has it been successful in the 21st century? Not as much as in the 20th century but it had the winner last year!!!
I used stats on covers, the nfl stats website, and an nfl database for the penalty yards. If you get different numbers, so be it. I COULD CARE LESS!!! I went over it a number of times for accuracy. This is what I came up with.
I am not a snake oil salesman selling a side. I admire Stram's legacy and his work as a head coach and his analysis on the MNF games on the radio over the years. The guy was money in his handicapping. RIP
