THIS WEEK'S PRO GAMES
Last Week's Pro
Games
The ridiculous
results at the end of the regular season have completely disrupted our ratings.
The forecasts presented here are largely taking into account these games.
Many of those games involved backup personnel and minimal effort. Sorry about that.
The ratings for Indianapolis, New Orleans, Cincinnati, Arizona, etc. are too low.
We have no real solution for this annual NFL problem.

The Pigskin Index is designed to give a quick comparison of the relative strength of all covered teams. To see how a game should turn out, simply compare the ratings of the competing teams and add 3 points to the home team. For example, a visiting team with a rating of 140 should be 7 points stronger than a home team with a rating of 130. 140 - (130 + 3) = 7. In neutral field games (such as the Super Bowl), no home team advantage may be appropriate.
