Drawing Jimmy G every day until he gets traded. Day 360:

  1. Good news, folks. Word ’round the campfire is indicating that, should the line stay at 2.5 as it has for a while, recently, that’s a good sign.

    Why?

    Because the majority of the money being wagered (as of Friday afternoon) was for the Eagles.
    This means that the books are liking Eagle money.

    What does this tell you as a gambler? Don’t do what the books want you to do. A smart gambler would put money on the 49ers.

  2. Only 59% on 538! And I feel like they’ve been lagging on adjusting for Purdy’s performance so I think we’ve got a solid tossup ahead of us.

  3. 65% is wild most nfl games fall between 58-42 and 50-50. You only get above 62/38 when one team is so very clearly better than the other. 65% on a 2.5 point spread means you have a bad model.

  4. Jimmy’s a free agent after this season and the trade deadline passed in November, so the niners can’t trade him. Much as I’ve enjoyed these drawings, if you’re waiting on a trade, it might be a good while until he’s signed by a team that later trades him.
