WinPicks, The Pro Football Analyst

Imagine having up to the minute statistics for every NFL team. Accurate predictions for every game. The ability to analyze matchups and uncover trends. You don't have to imagine. WinPicks, the Pro Football Analyst is a powerful software package that can do all this and more.

WinPicks is the Cadillac of pro football handicapping software. We designed WinPicks using the experience we've gained in nearly 20 years of writing and publishing sports handicapping software. We've been copied often by our competition, but no one has come close to matching the speed, power, and performance of WinPicks.

Huge Stat/Trend Database

WinPicks includes a comprehensive database that tracks every NFL team in 28 offensive and defensive categories. During the season, database updates are fast, easy, automatic, and FREE. The database is updated automatically through your Internet connection. After connecting to the Internet, just click on the WinPicks toolbar to instantly get the latest files. If you forget to update your database, WinPicks will remind you.

WinPicks can quickly show you how any team has performed in a variety of situations. Want to know how Denver has done against the spread as a home underdog? As a road favorite? On artificial turf? In domed stadiums? After a victory? In the playoffs? On Monday Night? In the first 5 weeks of the season? After 3 consecutive losses? After 5 consecutive victories? If you can think of an angle, ANY ANGLE, WinPicks can check it out for you. No other product gives you the answers faster or easier than WinPicks. You can also use the powerful Situation Analysis feature to instantly see all of the trends that could influence a specific game.

Of course, one of the problems with trends, is by the time you find them, it's sometimes too late. WinPicks solves that problem with the amazing Trend Watch feature, which goes one step beyond all available trend engines by searching through multiple combinations of game conditions to find significant trend patterns in the database. It quickly searches though literally millions of possible trends, and extracts only those that are statistically significant. Because Trend Watch does an exhaustive search of all available data, it uncovers information that only WinPicks users have. You can't get information like this anywhere else, no matter how much you are willing to pay. And best of all, Trend Watch alerts you when the trends it finds are relevant to games yet to be played.

WinPicks provides tons of data the average handicapper simply doesn't have. For example, you can look at power ratings over any interval ranging from 3 games to more than one season. You can instantly see which teams have played the toughest schedules. You can see which teams have the best turnover ratios, or have the best average for "points per 100 yards." You can also look at league trends like how often NFL home teams cover on Monday night, or how often home teams cover in all games. All data can be printed out using a powerful report generator that produces professional looking, business quality reports.

Powerful Handicapper

WinPicks is unmatched as a handicapping tool. It uses prediction formulas to predict the winner of every game and to recommend picks against the point spread. Four proven formulas are included with WinPicks. Each of them picked better than 60% against the spread last season. However, you aren't forced to use one of these formulas. You can create new formulas and use any handicapping method you can think of.

Creating new formulas is easy. You simply assign a weight to each statistic that you want to use. You can save the formula when the sum of the weighting factors equals 100%. Or, create winning formulas automatically with the amazing SureLock Formula Wizard. WinPicks can quickly analyze your formula by showing you its straight-up, against the spread, and against the totals record, plus the number of net units the formula has won or lost. This lets you see how well a formula works before you start using it. You can even test formulas using all available database. For example, does a formula work best with using all of the stats from the current season, or with a 3-game rolling average. WinPicks can quickly provide the answer!

If you need to tune up a formula, the incredible Formula Tuner uses a Monte Carlo technique that randomly varies the numbers, testing the results along the way. When a finds a better result, it remembers the new formula values, and continues to run with new random variations. Tuner runs continuously under your control, letting you tune a formula for a few minutes or overnight. The longer Tuner runs, the more likely the results will improve. In other words, the Formula Tuner can start with any formula, and in nearly all cases produce a better one.

If you have a hot formula that you want to share with someone else, or if you want to check out the hot formulas created by other users, then simply visit the Formula Warehouse. With just one click, you can upload a formula and make it available to all other users of WinPicks. With one more click, you can download a formula. And best of all, all formulas in the Formula Warehouse have been already been tested, so you'll know their winning percentage before you download them. The Formula Warehouse harnesses the power of the Internet and the handicapping expertise of all WinPicks users to make it easier than ever to beat the book!

In addition to recommending picks against the spread, WinPicks predicts the point total of every game (the over/under). It also produces a handy weekly prediction report you can use to enter your office pool.

WinPicks even allows you to run multiple formulas at one time. If you use multiple formulas, WinPicks will only recommend games where all of the formulas (or a majority) agree on the outcome. A formula consensus can produce incredible results! For example, the four formulas included with WinPicks produced a consensus against the spread record (using the unanimous vote method) of 96-28-3 last season. That's a staggering winning percentage of 77.4%, good for 64.1 net units!

Powerful Graphics Engine

WinPicks has a powerful graphics engine that makes statistics come to life! WinPicks produces two or three dimensional bar charts, line charts, area charts, or pie charts of each team's data. You can jump back and forth between graphical and tabular data. WinPicks also produces charts that show how a team's power ranking has gone up or down over the course of the season. This shows you who's hot and who's not, an essential piece of handicapping data. Plus, WinPicks produces Detailed Prediction Graphs for every game that show how the teams match up in 28 different statistical categories.
