This rule is known as the Taxi system (aka Dave, aka Taxi, aka Taxi Driver) & has been around for decades. This is the second time posted at customcappers.com & the first time the same team is in it in the same season.
Not true. This post reminded me that there is at least one game missing from Indigo999's list, and that is because his database search did not include playoff games. During the 2010 season, the formerly mighty Patriots defeated the Jets 45-3 and Bears 36-7 before failing to cover as 14.5-point favorites against the Packers, winning 31-27. The Patriots then defeated the Bills 34-3 and the Dolphins 38-7 to finish the regular season. Two weeks later after their bye, the Patriots hosted the Jets in the Divisional round as 9-point favorites and LOST 28-21, one of the most shocking losses of Brady's storied career.

Pretty sure some must be the bookies trying to cast doubt on one of the best systems around.
@ThirdEye4747
Are you guys incapable of looking this up? From 11/07/92 to 12/26/10, using this system you would have gone 17-2. Excellent system! Since then, the system had an 8-6 record going into tonite's game. That's a huge difference. It's not nearly as strong as it used to be. If you ant to keep thinking it's the world's greatest system, then go ahead. But most of the results happened between 14 and 31 years ago. The last 13 years this system has gone 9-6, counting tonite's game. The last 4 years, the system is 3-3. The system is not as strong as it once was. That's all I'm pointing out.

This used to be a good system. Recent results are unimpressive.
Now 3-2 the last three seasons. I already said throw out the 2020 game because that game was played during the fake 2020 season and I count no results from 2020 sports if they happened after March 17th, 2020. From the 2009 to 2019 this Double Blowout system went 14-1.

It was wishful thinking. It didn't cost me a dime. No disrespect is directed at you. It's a old system, that's been very strong, that is not as strong as it once was.

LOL, way off! Jimmy_Cats is not a reliable dispenser of information. It's not 9-6 since 12/26/10. It's 10-3 if you throw out the 2020 game played in front of no fans.

I'm using the results from the query that Indigo999 posted on here. There was only one game from 2020 that you don't want to count. Five other losses from the time frame I referenced.

No, you are mistaken. There are 5 losses if you throw out the 2020 game, not 3. Your information is unreliable.

There are a number of other Double Blowout System winners that took place in the playoffs. The one I'm most fond of happened way back in 1995 when the Detroit Lions met the Eagles in the Wild Card round in Philadelphia. Both teams finished the regular season 10-6, but the way the two teams played in December formed a public perception that led to a public BURIAL on December 30th, 1995. The Eagles went 2-2 in their final four games, losing their finale in Chicago. Their two wins that month were by 3 points and 1 point. Meanwhile the Lions won their last 7 regular season games, and in their final two games defeated the Jaguars 44-0 and the Buccaneers 37-10.
The Eagles opened as a a 1-point favorite, coincidentally just like the Eagles this week against the Niners. But the public was so impresssed with the Lions' recent performance that they were certain that the Lions would roll over the Eagles even though the game was being played in Philly, coincidentally what many are assuming will happen to the Eagles this week. The Lions were bet from a 1-point underdog all the way to a 3-point favorite, coincidentally just like the Niners this week.
The Eagles led the Lions 38-7 at halftime and won the game 58-37.

I'll eat crow here as I backed Dallas -7, ugly flags first half. Impressive play by Geno and DK. Stupid ass play calling by McCarthy again. 4th & 4 kick the FG and go up by 2. nope, give Seattle a short field, yup. 3rd and 3 at the end, run the funkin rock! throw a melon to stop the clock? This guy is so predictable, yet I overlook it all the time.
I did grab Sea +13.5 -120 live when Dal kicked the first FG. was hoping for that middle, had a 6 point window.

List the 3 games you know about, then I'll list the 2 that you don't know about.

I'm tired of waiting and have more important things to attend to. I would gladly bet 25k on this, but I don't know you, and would have no way of collecting. Here are all 6 games. I like to count the one played in 2000.
Nov 27, 2011 Texans vs Jaguars Texans -6 won 20-13 Oct 13, 2013 49ers vs Cardinals 49ers -11 won 32-20 Dec 20, 2015 Seahawks vs Browns Seahawks -14.5 won 30-13 Oct 25, 2020 Cardinals vs Seahawks Cardinals +3.5 won 37-34 Nov 28, 2021 49ers vs Vikings 49ers -4 won 34-26 Oct 01, 2023 Bills vs Dolphins Bills -3 won 48-20

Yes it did. It either cost you a dime because you faded the system and lost with Dallas (which you claim you didn't do) or you didn't follow the reliable system and missed out on that sweet cover.
Let's go Darwin

No disrespect, but the system is "vs a non-div opp", knocking out SF-11, Ariz+3' & Buff-3. And does not include NE-9 vs Jets in playoffs in '10. Leaving it 3-21 ats before last night. Now 3-22 ats.

That's your version. Bator's system says nothing about division foes. I used the games from the Indigo999 query as I previously stated.
p:points>=30 and pp:points>=30 and po:points<=12 and ppo:points<=12 and playoffs=0

cool. then the Bator system isnt as good as the original Taxi system which is this (and posted on page 1 of this thread):
Here's the system:
GO AGAINST ANY NFL TEAM IF THEY SCORED 30 OR MORE POINTS in EACH OF THEIR LAST TWO GAMES AND ALLOWED 12 OR LESS POINTS in THOSE SAME TWO GAMES if THEY ARE NOW PLAYING A TEAM OUTSIDE OF THEIR DIVISION.

Nov 27, 2011 Texans vs Jaguars Texans -6 won 20-13
Oct 13, 2013 49ers vs Cardinals 49ers -11 won 32-20
The Texans defeated the Browns 30-12 and the Buccanners 37-9 prior to defeating the Jaguars 20-13. That doesn't fit my system.
The Niners defeated the Rams 35-11 and the Texans 34-3 prior to defeating the Cardinals 32-20. That doesn't fit my system either.
Look, it's apparent that we're all never going to get on the same page as to what parameters we wanna use, so let's just each use whatever parameters we feel like using, and even better, let's quit talking about it. The next time this situation comes up in the NFL, I pledge to not type a single word about it! Okay?
