📊 Recap

Detroit handled New York 31-24, a seven-point final margin that just cleared our 6.5 cushion. The model's four-point projection wasn't far off, but a half-point separated a push from a loss — that's the margin business we're in.

NFL Carolina Panthers @ Cleveland Browns
LOST ✗Final
Our Pick
OVER 42.5
Final Score18-21
Result-1u

📊 Recap

The Panthers and Browns combined for just 39 points, finishing well short of the 42.5 total in a low-scoring defensive battle. Our model projected 44, and the early-season defensive trends supported the number — this one simply didn't materialize. A loss we can accept without apology.

NFL Cincinnati Bengals @ Pittsburgh Steelers
LOST ✗Final
Our Pick
UNDER 42.5
Final Score27-30
Result-1u

📊 Recap

The Under 42.5 didn't hold, as a 57-point final pushed well past our projection. The logic around wind suppression and Pittsburgh's offensive limitations was sound, but the scoring outpaced the model tonight — that's the variance.

NFL Houston Texans @ Indianapolis Colts
WON ✓Final
Our Pick
Colts +1.5
Final Score17-19
Result+0.5u

📊 Recap

The Colts covered in a tight one, 19-17, validating the value of taking points in a near-coin-flip spot. With Houston's offense still hampered by the absence of Nico Collins, Indianapolis had just enough to get the job done.

NFL Arizona Cardinals @ San Francisco 49ers
LOST ✗Final
Our Pick
UNDER 48.5
Final Score30-36
Result-1u

📊 Recap

The Cardinals and 49ers combined for 66 points, clearing the 48.5 total comfortably. Our model projected 46.5, and the defensive trend we leaned on simply didn't hold — the number was beat by a wide margin. A clean loss.

NFL Las Vegas Raiders @ New Orleans Saints
WON ✓Final
Our Pick
Raiders +3.5
Final Score35-27
Result+1u

📊 Recap

The Raiders covered comfortably, losing by eight but staying well within the 3.5-point cushion our model identified. The defensive efficiency we noted held — 35 points allowed is a tick above projection, but the spread gave us exactly the buffer we needed.
