This article will explore the range of handicapping resources offered by the Cappers web application for each NFL game. Broadly speaking, our NFL handicapping tools can be divided into: Team Information, Links and Projections, AI Analysis, Current Game Odds, Odds Line Movements, Team Injuries, Team Statistics, Recent Scoring & Points Allowed for both teams, Team ATS (Against The Spread) Records, Betting System Results, and Previous Game Starters.

Prior to getting started, it's important to mention that Cappers.ai provides a complimentary 3-day free trial for all new users. This trial grants unrestricted entry to our complete platform, allowing you to analyze NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and men's NCAA basketball games. Additionally, we are continuously enhancing our services and expanding the range of sports available on the platform. At present, we are offering an initial rate of just $19 per month or $190 per year. Should you decide to terminate your trial before its conclusion, no charges will be incurred.

Team Info, Links and Projections

Once you have inputted all the game details and submitted our NFL handicapping form, the initial section you will encounter is the Team Info, Links, and Projections. This section contains various details about each team such as coaching staff (including their duration in the role), home stadium, conference and division, as well as their record from previous seasons.

Following the team details, you will find links to each team's information, including their details, roster, depth chart, schedule, and stats. Additionally, you can view projections for each team, outlining their current divisional winning chances, projected wins and losses. Also included are Warren Sharp's preseason predictions for their number of wins and divisional standings.

AI Analysis

We are thrilled and proud of the AI Analysis section, a key feature of cappers.ai. Our website's domain name reflects our focus on sports handicapping, where we harness the power of artificial intelligence to help bettors make informed decisions. Specifically, we utilize ChatGPT 4 to thoroughly analyze crucial game details and provide tailored recommendations for smarter betting choices.

The ChatGPT bot is equipped with comprehensive information on recent team performance, including data from the current and previous seasons. Additionally, we supply the bot with up-to-date injury reports and weather conditions for outdoor games. Our data also covers team performance against the spread, taking into account their status as favorites or underdogs, as well as their performance at home or away. Furthermore, we provide the bot with public betting trends to analyze where most wagers are being placed. Finally, we furnish the bot with odds for point spreads, money line, and over-under totals to aid in making recommendations for these three types of bets.

After thoroughly reviewing the vast amount of information available, the ChatGPT bot carefully examines all details and provides tailored suggestions. Our AI recommendations are regularly updated and can be accessed through the Cappers web application for handicapping NFL games and other supported sports, offering comprehensive insights for each game. While we believe that our AI recommendation service alone offers substantial value, our platform also offers various additional features to enhance your sports betting experience and outcomes.

Latest Game Odds

Serious sports bettors find it crucial to compare odds from various sports books. To meet this requirement, Cappers consistently updates the latest odds from BetMGM, DraftKings, FanDuel, and Pinnacle for all supported sports. This allows you to compare point spreads, money lines, and over under totals across these platforms. Understanding how your sportsbook's odds stack up against these major books is beneficial even if you're not placing a bet through them.

Odds Line Movements

Aside from presenting the most recent odds from the three sportsbooks mentioned earlier, we also consider it valuable to track the changes in betting lines over time. To achieve this, we showcase graphical representations of line movements for each sportsbook, utilizing color coding for clarity. For NFL games, we offer graphs depicting the money line and point spread movements for each team, along with a graph illustrating changes in the over-under total. Monitoring these line movements closely is an effective method for making informed betting choices.

Team Statistics

Experienced bettors understand the significance of analyzing a team's statistics before placing a bet. At Cappers, we offer comprehensive offensive, defensive, and special teams statistics for each team, organized to allow you to view their latest game stats, average stats for the last three games, average stats for the current season, and average stats from the previous season. If you're someone who enjoys delving into numbers before making an NFL bet, we believe you'll be extremely satisfied with the wealth of information provided by the Cappers web application.

Recent Scoring & Points Allowed for both teams

Examining the latest statistics of the last three games provides valuable insight into a team's current performance level. This section is ideal for users seeking a more concise overview of the stats, as it details each team's recent point scoring and point allowance averages over the past three games. It offers a high-level summary for those who prefer not to delve deeply into the detailed statistics provided in the previous section.

Team ATS (Against The Spread) Records

It's common knowledge that simply winning a game doesn't ensure winning a bet, unless you exclusively bet on the money line. If you also make point spread plays, it's crucial to grasp how a team performs against the spread. In our instance, we not only display a team's general ATS record but also provide their ATS record for specific scenarios.

  • ATS overall
  • ATS as favorites
  • ATS as underdogs
  • ATS as a visiting team
  • ATS at home
  • ATS when favored as a visiting team
  • ATS as a visiting team underdog
  • ATS as a home favorite
  • ATS as a home underdog

Not only do you get all of these ATS records for the current season, but you also get them for the previous two seasons as well.

Betting System Results

Cappers.ai began by analyzing outcomes from diverse sports betting systems. We are continuously investigating established systems and developing our own, providing you with results from every system for each game. If you've ever manually computed sports betting system results, you understand the time-consuming nature of this task. It's possible to invest 15 minutes or more on calculating the outcomes of a single system for a single game. Cappers significantly enhances this process by swiftly performing all calculations for you. Upon submitting the game form, you will receive results from every system in approximately one second. This represents a significant time-saving opportunity!
