New YPPT Method

i just saw this post, nice system you have running here..

what's the record at the moment for nfl?

VG,

A few weeks back you addressed the fact that StatFox may have inaccurate statistics and cited a detailed example using the NYG running game.

Are you making these manual adjustments when you calculate each game at this point? Or did you find the differences to be immaterial?

Hey VG -

Where are the NBA Picks going to be?  I can't find the thread for it.  Great job on Football!!

Also, would VG or anyone experienced in these calculations mind posting a detailed example of one for this week's NFL.  Something similar to VG's post for the Giants-Saints game two weeks ago would be extremely helpful.

I just ran the numbers for the Broncos-Ravens game and was off a full 7 points on each side compared to VGs numbers on the previous page.  I would love to see where I am off.

However, I am still interested to hear if it is a worthwhile use of time to adjust StatFox statistics as discussed above, and I am very curious to know whether any progress has been made in regards to implementing the plays per games as mentioned earlier.

VGPOP,

Florida St is Projected at 54. Would you take a team total over?

Hey guys,

I'm trying to work on the YPPT method and I'm sitting here pulling my hair out, any help is much appreciated.  Questions...

I'm doing Denver and Baltimore, this way everyone can get the same stats and perhaps for the people that are confused like me, maybe learn something, anyhow.

SOS which I got from USA today are:

Denver = 21.59 and Baltimore = 21.62

Then I divided 21.59 by (21.59+21.62) and got .50 for Denver and also 0.50 for Baltimore, I guess since 21.62 divided by (21.59+21.62) are pretty close.  So what is this called?

Next I went to thespread.com and found Denver's RY which is 132.7 and added it to Baltimore's Defensive RY which is 91.2 and divided by 2 which gave me 111.95.  OKay great but now, I'm not sure what to do next?

Also why in the very first example, we used Jet's Offense and Dolphin's Defense and not both?

So so confused,

Recon

Can anyone do a sample step by step calculation for one of this week matchup? I'm still confused on what numbers I should use in statfox.com.

Thanks in advance

If anyone can explain how they get the numbers inside the brackets.

For Ex: (Last week)

Boise (O) 191.6 (R) (+28.8)     247.8 (P) (+37.6)  10.9 YPPT (-1.3)

Tulsa  (D)   95.0 (R) (-31.1)      204.2 (P) (+6.5)   18.5 YPPT (-0.3)

If anyone can explain using this week matchups so we have all the numbers.

Thanks
