From the Data to the Super Bowl - End of Season Power Rankings and Week 17 Recap

Week 17 Recap

Week 17 was rather straight forward. The model was able to predict  13 out of the 16 games performing better than most expert picks. The two games incorrectly predicted were the CHI/GB game (low confidence prediction) and the MIA/NYJ game (self-destruction by MIA).  Lots to learn as I move forward to apply this next year!


Posted below are the power rankings for the end of the season.  I will be posting post-season predictions later this week. Should be exciting.
