NFL Over/Unders 128-0, 2009-2012

I only back tested through 2009. Simple system. Bet the opposite of week 1 O/U result for each team using up to a 6 game chase. Example: If New Orleans goes Over in week 1, start a chase on the Under. Each team was undefeated for the last 4 years including 2012. Also, very few chases went beyond 2 games. (Count a push as a no game)

Results:

1 gm - 62 wins

2 gm - 49 wins (that's 111 out of 128 in 2 weeks!)

3 gm - 8 wins

4 gm - 6 wins

5 gm - 2 wins

6 gm - 1 win (only 3 chases of 5 or 6 games in 4 years)

Nothing wrong with starting the first few weeks of the NFL season up 32 wins with low juice.  

Yes. Since I can't pick a point spread winner to save my life in the NFL, I was trying to think of a way to win 1 unit per team as quickly as possible.

One thing I thought about is in week 2 if you are supposed to bet a team over and their opponent under, it's a no bet. What I would do is stop the chase on the team that hit their O/U as if you did bet on them, then the following week bet on the team that lost as if you bet them the week before and they lost. Hope that makes sense.

LOL, I hear ya. I wish I thoiught of looking for this before the season started. Maybe I'll do a test for the last 7 games of the year.

Sent a friend request.

I checked this out for the final 7 weeks but it didn't do as well. It went 127-1 with Tampa the loss in 2009. Also not as many early in the chase wins.

1 gm - 71 wins

2 gm - 20 wins (91 wins vs.111 at start of season chase)

3 gm - 16 wins

4 gm - 7 wins

5 gm - 7 wins

6 gm -  6 wins

1 LOSS (14 chases went at least 5 games compared to 3 at the start of the season chase)

Nice work. I'd think if you did both systems you would end up betting botht he Over and Under on the same team. Not sure how you would avoid that. I would just do one or the other.

Another system that works is betting OOOOOO. Seattle went to game 6 this year, but it looks like this has worked for a few years in a row.

Isn't this chase for every team starting week 2 even if they are playing a team that needs the opposite result in week 2

For example this thurs it's balt (week1 und) vs pitt (wk 1 over)

it doesn't make sense to play both the over and under but if it went over would it make sense to play pitt in week 3 for 2 units to go under.
