Monday Night Result:
San Francisco 49ers at Arizona Cardinals (Actual ~ San Francisco, 27-6)
Creative Misfortune's Pick: Arizona, 17-14. Neither team is very good, but since they both play in the NFC West, they each still have dreams of winning the division title.
Scottie V's Pick: San Francisco, 23-17. Not exactly a prime matchup for Monday night, but what are you going to do?
Vegas Lines Pick: San Francisco, 21-19. San Francisco by 1, Over/Under 40.
Accuscore Pick: Arizona, 14-13. Both teams tied with 50% win confidence, advantage home
What If Sports Pick: Arizona, 21-17. Arizona won 3 of 5 simulations.
Best Record Wins Pick: Arizona, 20-17. Both teams at 3-7, advantage home.
Home Team Wins Pick: Arizona, 20-17
The San Francisco 49ers dominated the Cardinals from start to finish and looked about as good as a 3-7 team can look... when beating up another 3-7 team. At 4-7, San Francisco is only one game out of the division lead with 5 games to play (with 3 against division opponents). Arizona still has slight playoff aspirations, but is on serious life support and would have already been put out of commission if they played in a different division. Most prediction systems backed the home team. Only the masterminds in Vegas and Scottie V had the vision to pick San Francisco to win this game on the road.
No system managed to get to the 70% mark this week, but the Vegas Picks, Accuscore and Best Record systems all came extremely close. Whereas blindly picking the team with the Best Record produced near 70% accuracy, blindly picking the Home Team finished below 50%, only getting 7 out of 16 possible games correct. Although, one of those 7 picks ended up being perfect.
