NFL 2015 Super Bowl Prediction
Amos falls short two games and the rest of the models have a perfect record for the divisional round.
For those just joining, Amos is a statistical model created to predict the outcomes of each NFL game. Amos currently predicts games straight-up. Additionally, Amos then predicts the remainder of the season to compute the ending record of each team.
Amos also has peers within the NFL prediction field. While there are a number of sources for game predictions, I have identified Microsoft’s Bing Prediction (Cortana), ESPN’s Football Power Index (FPI) and Nate Silver’s Elo as benchmarks for comparison to Amos.
For the Super Bowl, all of the models are in agreement that Carolina has the best chance of winning.
