Some of you may be familiar with the story:
Listening to a new Rogan podcast guest -- guy named Billy Walters; a very successful, professional gambler was explaining how he makes bets based on the LINE and the closer his analysis is to the LINE, the least likely he is to make a bet. In the case of the Saints Vs Colts, he explained that the line was 7 and his analysis was at a pick em -- he was so confused at the LINE that he did the analysis several times and then proceeded to realize the LINES were way off and made the biggest bet of his career. And of course, won!
Many of us knew that the Saints were unbeatable when Porter, Greer and Sharper were healthy -- especially at the CB position -- a simple analysis would show a substantial decrease in QBR for opposing QBs when faced with that Backfield -- You'd have to imagine a guy like Walters had many more variables considered to make his analysis and take advantage of a historically bad LINE.
Really interesting podcast and worth the listen. He talks about the Saints/Colts at 33.33 and gets off topic for a few minutes then comes back to finish the story.
