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
