( We have added a “Momentum” column to our Power Rankings that reflects change in outlook over the last 3-5 games. Enjoy!)
Do you ever wonder about the “true strength”of your favorite NFL team? Power rankings by sportswriters often are hype-based and do not reflect statistical reality. It takes an unbiased intelligent computer to do the job!
Our exclusive Artificial Intelligence generated NFL power rankings are based on 5 proprietary mathematical ranking systems developed and optimized by our computer! These systems are designed to:
1. Determine the winner of the game
2. Minimize difference between predicted margin and actual margin
3. Minimize squared difference between predicted margin and actual margin
4. Minimize difference between predicted total and actual total
5. Minimize squared difference between predicted total and actual total
Scoring machine learning performance along these 5 dimensions allows our AI system to adapt to new information quickly and synergistically. Observed over time we are able to get an accurate assessment of current and evolving team strengths and weaknesses.
Each AI point separating teams below is worth 1.0 actual point. For a rough prediction, average offenses versus opponent defenses and adjust for home and visitors. For advanced accuracy and convenience, please consult the deep learning system’s game-specific predictions, which use additional learned factors and weights.
