A.I. NFL Picks for Every Week 3 Game – ATS & O/U Predictions from Sportradar’s A.I. Model

• I have generated NFL Week 3 picks from Sportradar’s A.I. model
• The model is struggling is a woeful 24-36 overall in its ATS and O/U picks to date (so feel free to fade)
• Below, see our A.I. NFL picks (ATS and total) for all 16 games on the Week 3 schedule

After just about treading water in Week 1, the Week 2 slate was an unmitigated disaster for our A.I. picks. Our model is a 6-8 against the spread and 4-10 O/U heading into tonight’s Monday Night Football doubleheader.

Encouragingly, it went 9-5 (+2.78 units) on its first 14 player-prop picks. Will an additional week of data improve its ATS and O/U performance? Time will tell.

Below, I have set out the A.I.’s NFL picks for Week 3, including its ATS and O/U pick for all 16 games based on the opening NFL Week 3 odds. Note that the picks for the Buccaneers, Texans, Chargers, and Raiders Week 3 games were generated before they played their Week 2 games.

A.I. NFL Picks for Week 3

A.I. ATS picks record: 24-36

A.I. O/U picks record: 24-36

A.I. player-prop picks record: 9-5

A.I. Week 3 NFL Picks Include Five Overs

The A.I. picks for Week 1 were heavily skewed towards unders (12 unders vs four overs), and the Week 2 picks even more so (14 overs vs two unders). The Week 3 O/U picks are slightly more balanced, with 11 overs and five unders.

However, the model is an abysmal 1-5 on its six over bets to date. The only over bet it’s gotten right so far was over 47.5 in Bears vs Lions, which Detroit eclipsed by itself in a 52-21 rout.

A.I. Week 3 NFL Picks Are Heavy on Favorites

In both Weeks 1 and 2, the A.I. went with nine favorites and seven underdogs. The Week 3 picks are much more slanted towards the chalk, targeting 11 favorites and just five underdogs.

The model has had a lot more success picking chalk so far, going 9-9 ATS in the 18 games where it’s picked the favorite, and an abhorrent 3-9 when picking the underdog to cover the spread.
