Record as a market favorite

Every graded game since 2006 where the de-vigged market made them the favorite.

The Houston Texans have been the betting favorite in 150 graded games and won 104 of them — 69.3%. The market priced those same games at 99.5 expected wins, so they finished +4.5 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 60-19 (75.9%) across 79 games, against 58.0 expected wins.
