Had a quick question for you handicappers out there. How are power rankings made for top 25 teams- Teams in the power 5 conferences or just plain NFL in general. I hear all the time that one team is rated higher or lower than others, as well as weekly power ratings. When lines are first introduced to the public, I hear all the time a handicapper jumped all over "Team A" at -5 because there power rating over "Team B" was at 11 points. Just inquiring about how these numbers are made, what do many look for in rating a particular team? Do power ratings adjust from home to away? I know home field advantage is roughly 3 points on any given game.
Thought it would be good to add to my arsenal of handicapping if this was a useful practice. Any insight would help, and would love everyones take on this....
Thanks All...
