Wise Guy
HOUSTON +2.5 Chicago
Road dogs in non-divisional games based on completion percentage and rushing yards per attempt are 59-16-1. Admittedly a coin flip in recent years, but as corroborating evidence, road teams off road loss are a good bet 346-296-18. Going against favorites who are almost always underdogs is 160-98-12. Houston is a weird 1-0-1 SU, losing on the road. Chicago is 1-1 SU, winning to San Francisco at home, implying Bears are the better team. But I have told you for decades straight up record is the most deceiving stat in sports. Home field is worth three points, yet Chicago, with the better record is laying less than that. When the overall and splits records both strongly imply the road team should be a much bigger dog, but are not, we weaponize that against them with a 106-67 record.
ATLANTA +2 Seattle

We cut and pasted the Houston example by accident, but the same system applies.
GREEN BAY +2 Tampa
Betting on the more disappointing defense based on delta points allowed is 348-239-15. Delta points allowed is how many points they allowed relative to the average team total. Road teams winless on the road are 191-132 under specific situations that apply in this game. Fading teams in home opener in week 3 is 60-37.
Major
PHILADELPHIA -6.5 Washington
If the home team has been better home than in the road, regression to the mean angle favors the road team 157-113-1.
DETROIT +6 Minnesota

Washington-Philadelphia UNDER 47
When a math total has a large enough difference to the posted total, we use the oddsmakers knowledge against them. Because we store each over and under differently in each sport, the over and under angles will have different records, but in reality one could combine them for an overall record. The under version goes under at a rate of 1550-1217-61. It is okay in playoffs, but much better in regular season.
