Record as a market favorite
Every graded game since 2006 where the de-vigged market made them the favorite.
The Carolina Panthers have been the betting favorite in 134 graded games and won 78 of them — 58.2%. The market priced those same games at 86.1 expected wins, so they finished -8.1 against their own price. That gap is small relative to the sample and should be read as noise, not a repeatable edge.
Narrowing to the games survivor players actually consider — a pre-game win probability of at least 65% — the record is 39-15 (72.2%) across 54 games, against 39.5 expected wins.
