Hi. Welcome. I've looked at it both ways--over-weighting recent games and equally weighting all games. On one hand we can capture things like injuries, and on the other hand we get a larger sample of data. Both methods are about equally accurate, so I prefer to use the simpler method and use equal weights for all games.

Great Site!<br /><br />Is there value in tracking the last three games of each team in terms of whether they are improving or regressing?<br /><br />My case studies would be the Denver and Tennessee teams and their current directions.<br /><br />thanks

I know there has been a lot of discussion in the past similar to the following dilemma:<br /><br />SD beats PHI, but PHI moves up past SD...as a philly fan, I also can&#39;t help but wonder if the #1 team defensive efficiency rating is a statistical fluke at this point in the season. To me, it has a lot to do with beating the bad teams convincingly, and falling behind against the good teams

Sorry about the sorting. My traffic has been so heavy the past couple weeks that the javascript server has been overloaded.
