Nfl Wildcard

05 Jan 2019

I managed to get my model up to 72% accuracy with logistic regression and around 63% accuracy in my NN model. So, not too great with the NN but decent with regression. The picks are as follows:

Logistic Model

Indianapolis Colts 51.8%, Houston Texans 48.2%

Seattle Seahawks 67.7%, Dallas Cowboys 32.3%

Los Angeles Chargers 52.0%, Baltimore Ravens 48.0%

Philadelphia Eagles 23.5%, Chicago Bears 76.5%

NN Model

Indianapolis Colts 71.6%, Houston Texans 28.4%

Seattle Seahawks 33.2%, Dallas Cowboys 66.8%

Los Angeles Chargers 81.2%, Baltimore Ravens 18.8%

Philadelphia Eagles 42.5%, Chicago Bears 57.5%

My Predictions

To be completely honest I don’t follow football a whole lot. Basketball is my thing (which I’m working on also predicting.) However I do partake a bit in fantasy football so I’ve become a bit more versed in which teams are good at what, so these are my inexperienced picks to win:

Colts, Seahawks, Chargers, Bears
