How The Model Sees It

Our rating has New England Patriots as the stronger side by 270 rating points, which on its own is worth about 10.8 points on the scoreboard (NYJ 1,346, NE 1,616).

Home field adds 1.4 points to NE — a measured figure from our backtest, not the traditional three, because home advantage in the modern NFL is considerably smaller than it used to be.

That lands on a projected margin of +12.2, and running that through the historical spread of actual results against projections gives New England Patriots at 83%.

The closing line agrees on the winner, making New England Patriots favourite by 9.5 against our 12.2.
