I really got interested in the YPPT Method posted by Roughshod and others on this forum last year. At one point, someone put the YPPT Method into an Excel spreadsheet and posted a copy on the board.
So please note that this is not my formula.
I know alot of people are interested in the YPPT Method, so I'm posting the weekly matchups to assist you with your capping. As a point of reference, here is how the system fared for the final half of the 2009 Season.
2009 YPPT NFL Week 10: 8-6 SU, 7-7 ATS Week 11: 8-8 SU, 6-10 ATS Week 12: 14-2 SU, 9-6-1 ATS Week 13: 10-6 SU, 6-10 ATS Week 14: 11-5 SU, 9-7 ATS Week 15: 10-6 SU, 4-11-1 ATS Week 16: 10-6 SU, 8-8 ATS Week 17: 8-8 SU, 6-9-1 ATS WC: 2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS DIV: 2-2 SU, 2-2 ATS CONF: 1-1 SU, 0-2 ATS SB44: 0-1 SU, 0-1 ATS ============================================================== Regular Season Totals: 79-47 SU (63%), 55-68-3 ATS (45%) Playoff Totals: 5-6 SU (45%), 4-7 ATS (36%) Overall Totals: 84-53 SU (61%), 59-75-3 ATS (44%)
As you can see, the YPPT method was not very good ATS last year and I'm pretty sure ESPN or USAToday's pick'em gurus probably did better than 61% in SU picks too.
But maybe it'll do better this year. Here are the Week 3 NFL Games:
TENNESSEE 28 NY GIANTS 26 BUFFALO 17 NEW ENGLAND 34 CLEVELAND 8 BALTIMORE 10 PITTSBURGH 16 TAMPA BAY 7 CINCINNATI 25 CAROLINA 16 ATLANTA 33 NEW ORLEANS 12 SAN FRANCISCO 11 KANSAS CITY 27 DETROIT 12 MINNESOTA 19 DALLAS 13 HOUSTON 50 WASHINGTON 22 ST LOUIS 11 PHILADELPHIA 30* JACKSONVILLE 30 INDIANAPOLIS 31 DENVER 19 SAN DIEGO 27 SEATTLE 16 OAKLAND 14* ARIZONA 14 NY JETS 11 MIAMI 6 GREEN BAY 24 CHICAGO 17
*-PHILADELPHIA and OAKLAND had slightly higher points by decimal, but when rounding the scores, it ended in a tie for each of those games.

Ok, YPPT is very good but, its more like a tool which helps you to get an idea what totals or spread should be...Also there are so many ways to use it, currently im testing about 4 different formulas with YPPT...
