Pro Football Betting Software Overview

Dan Gordon's NFL Handicapping Companion is a new combination of handicapping data and software available at NFL Football Betting Software. Below is a brief overview.

When you enter DG-NFL, the first action taken by the program will be to automatically check the Web for handicapping data updates. (This feature can be set to manual if you do not have constant Web access.) Any new data will be downloaded into the program tables without any action on your part. The data is created by Dan Gordon himself. This data includes:

• Football scores for all games played since the last update.
• Indicators for football games that were classified as Phony Wins, Phony Losses, and Sloppy Wins as defined by Dan's book (Beat the Sports Books - An Insider's Guide to Betting the NFL.)
• Dan's subjective adjustments for upcoming games. These are adjustments for complex handicapping rules that cannot be caluclated such as emotional games and revenge.
• Dan's adjustments to home advantage for each team.This varies throughout the season by football team.
• Dan's mid-season adjustments to team Grades. These normally occur after the fourth game but can occur at any time in the season
• Schedule changes on rare occasions.
  

Football Handicapping Screens

Now that the data is up to date, the main screen is displayed. Here you will see the schedule for the first week. You can display the schedule either by week or team. That is, all the NFL football games in the selected week or all the games in the season for a team. All football power numbers, project lines and win percentages will have been automatically recalculated using the new data. Other tables can also be displayed on this screen and changes can be made. Each time you make a change the entire season is recalculated.

Click Adjust and you will see the Rules Adjustments for the currently selected game. These include home advantage, 12 rules from Beat the Sports Books, Dan's adjustments and your own adjustments. You can turn handicapping rules on or off or change the effect of rules by clicking on Defaults. Click Math to see the calculations made for this game in more detail. Again, you can change data cells in white. See the Help screen for Adjust for more info.

From the Adjust screen, click Data to get to the Football Handicapping Data screen. This is the data that is automatically downloaded each week. Note, cells in light blue are changed by Dan and updated each week. You can also temporarily change them, but they will be reset on the next update. Unless you turn data updates off or create your own handicapping data tables. For more info, see the Help for the Data screen.

There are many more screens. It is strongly suggested that you examine each screen and read the entire help to see all of the features. You will end up on the main screen. With all the data downloaded and any adjustments you wish to make, the Projected Line will be displayed for every game. By comparing the projected lines and the lines available from the sports books, you will know when a football bet makes sense.
