Podcast: Joe Fortenbaugh on The Sharp 600, NFL in 2017

By Dr. Ed Feng 4 Comments

On this episode of The Football Analytics Show, I talk with Joe Fortenbaugh, host of The Sharp 600 podcast and football betting expert. Among other topics, we discuss:

  • The amazing way in which Joe broke into the sports world. A must listen whether you want to follow in his footsteps or land a date after getting a number. Listen at 2:20.
  • How the new podcast The Sharp 600 came about. 600 refers to the number of second of each show.
  • Joe’s take on how analytics has become a part of sports media and betting.
  • The NFL team that has most surprised Joe early this season

Joe also had an awesome book recommendation that reminds us to keep things in perspective.

After the interview, I do my own segment on NFL pass rankings by adjusted yards per play. This includes a discussion of how I develop a total points prediction for Jacksonville at Pittsburgh this weekend.

You can read about my NFL pass rankings here, or listen at 28:51.

    I like pod cast and picks , but are my paid predictions more accurate or the free predictions you send out . Sometimes I get confused on what is the best pick when they contradict each other just need to confirm which I should trust the most . A lot of times they are similar.

      As a member, go to the member predictions.

      The public predictions are based only on points. The member predictions use other sources of data as well.

        Ed,

        Can you please post your picks record (both free and member). I’m assuming both are very close to 50%. I’ve yet to see an accurate record beat the vig over 500+ picks. What sample size would you consider significant if you were hiring a capper for your firm?
