Why

nflverse enrichment is off. There is no ratings cache, so these numbers are ESPN FPI only. Run npm run nfl:refresh.

  • TEN rating -4.7, JAX rating 2.6.
  • Fuel: ESPN FPI. nflverse enrichment is off.
  • Home field adds 2.4 to TEN.
  • Predicted margin is JAX by 4.9.
  • Edge is 2.4 points toward JAX.
  • Edge 2.4 pts — inside the 5-pt no-bet band. (Rating gap -7.3; home field +2.4). Fuel: ESPN FPI. nflverse enrichment is off.
  • Moneyline ticket is JAX, because the predicted margin clears 2 points.
  • No totals ticket. On 2024–2025 closing totals the EPA number was less accurate than the market, so the total stays on the card and off the ticket.

Lock a ticket

Same rules as the board. ATS only when the edge clears 5 and the rating is not a placeholder. Moneyline only when the model has a winner by 2 or more. The lock stores the line now. CLV fills in after the game is final if the nflverse cache has a closing spread. Until then it stays blank.

Edge 2.4 pts — inside the 5-pt no-bet band. (Rating gap -7.3; home field +2.4). Fuel: ESPN FPI. nflverse enrichment is off.

Writes this moneyline into the ledger. No point line, and no fake close.
