The spot: Big disagreement

Elo and the market are 10 or more points apart. Over 24 seasons (943 games) Elo's side won 50% while Elo claimed 63% and the market 49%. The market was right almost every time. Take the market's number, or split the difference at most. This is where Elo is overconfident.

Minnesota Vikings over the Packers: Elo 66%, market 54%. Big disagreement: trust the market number. Wentz is worth 47 Elo.
