  The Sterling Net Point Power Rankings™ (Thru NFL Conference Championships (23_24) I believe it's instructive for people to understand that this the Sterling net Point Power Rankings™) is a study. After all the former players and coaches gave their expert opinion, the show moderator would close out with some cool stat and many times it was a differential. So I began to track the important differentials and take it one step further where we extract what we call the Bias. It's the Net point differential between two competing teams. The team with the greater net points would be favored and we call that number the 'Bias'.  Recently, I was toying with how to calculate a teams recent momentum into the Net Point Rankings. These are the standard rankings 1 through 32.We use averages to account for the Bye week. There are many who see the Kansas City Chiefs as the favorite to win SBLVIII although the oddsmakers are favoring the San Francisco Forty Niners. I wanted to account fo

  NFL Intriguing Game of the Week Baltimore Ravens 8-3-0 @ LA Chargers 4-6-0 Bias+ Score 7 favors Baltimore Ravens By Barry Sterling Mitchell Once I declared on the Ben and Barry on Football™ show that the Ravens were my odds-on favorite to take the AFC, this game became very intriguing. This will be a statement game for the team that wins. I’ll explain later. First let’s look at the numbers. The Ravens in top 5 in Average Net Points (ANP) ranked 3 rd averaging +11.9 Net Points. This is their average win margin despite having lost 3 games. By comparison, the top ranked team by wins and losses are the Eagles at 9 &1. It’s illustrative of their season to see that they rank 7 th in ANP at +6.1. I remind everyone that this ranking is part of a study on the correlations of these stats to the Super Bowl Champion. Generally, it’s not the first-place team in Net Points but it’s usually one of the top 8. Offensively, the Ravens are under the microscope due to the new offensi
