WWOS METHODOLOGY

What the numbers
on WWOS mean.

Our goal is to show where information comes from conceptually, what we calculate from it, and where its limits are.

Schedule & matchup data

Upcoming games and available team information are assembled from configured data feeds. Records, statistics and injuries are descriptive inputs, not forecasts of the final score.

Market context

Displayed spreads, totals and moneylines describe available market information at the time it was collected. Sportsbook prices can change quickly and may differ by book.

Implied probability

American odds can be converted mathematically into implied probability. That probability includes the effect of sportsbook pricing and should not be read as WWOS assigning a true chance of winning.

Fair-market / no-vig view

When both sides of a market are available, WWOS can normalize their implied probabilities so they total 100%. This removes the displayed mathematical overround from that snapshot; it does not create a prediction or guarantee.

Line movement

When historical snapshots are available, WWOS can compare collected prices over time. A movement describes a change between observations. It does not by itself explain why the market moved.

Community picks

Visitor voting reflects participating users, not a scientific sample of NFL fans or bettors. Vote percentages should be treated as community opinion.

DATA LIMITS

Freshness matters.

Third-party data can be delayed, unavailable, corrected or incomplete. A displayed price may no longer be offered. Always verify current sportsbook information before acting on it.

WWOS separates descriptive market information from user decisions: the site helps explain the matchup and the numbers; you make your own call.
