How We Did It
Multiple factors were used in creating an algorithm for the Bookies.com Watchability Index. Each of the 272 games on the NFL schedule were scored (and recalculated weekly) for the following:
- WIN DISPARITY: Projected Win Totals Combined; Minus Win Total Disparity
- ADJUSTED SB ODDS: Weighted Average of Each Team’s Odds To Win The Super Bowl at BetMGM, with the most points going to the team (Buffalo) favored to win the Super Bowl. And the least points given the longest shot on the board (Cleveland).
- POINT SPREAD: Weighted point spread for each game. A pick’em gets 20 points, a 1-point spread 19 points, a 2-point spread 18 points, and so on.
Individual matchups were also awarded 3 points each if they included:
- Are scheduled in prime time or in a national network slot; or are available on Amazon Prime or Netflix
- Include a major secondary storyline in addition to the game itself (i.e. Aaron Rodgers’ return to the NFL; a playoff rematch; a traditional rivalry; or offer a potential playoff preview, etc.)
- Have potential for extreme weather, or an impactful crowd
- Ties are broken by point spread, with the lower point spread being deemed more watchable.
