Newsletter Tracking (through 01/03/2021)
Looks like a lot of the worst newsletters turned things around the last couple of weeks. This will be the last update this season.
This week there were a few plays that could have gone either way, depending on when it was put in, so some newsletters may claim undeserved wins. For example, anyone who played the Colts early won or pushed, but if you got them late, it was a loss. The Denver/Vegas game is the same way, with the line moving all over the place, both teams being 3-point dogs at times, and the game ending with a 1-point Vegas win. No matter what the newsletters claim, their record here reflects their play/line at the time it was published.
