How the simulator works

Each team gets a rating from this season's ESPN results: its average scoring margin, adjusted for how good its opponents were (strength of schedule), plus a 25% nudge for how its last 3 games compared with that rating. The home team gets a 4.4-point edge, measured from this season's home results (none at neutral sites). We then play each game 10,000 times with random margins drawn from a bell curve (spread 13.5 points, fit from how far results landed from the ratings) and report how often each side wins. Built from 619 completed games. Teams with fewer than 2 completed games are not rated.
