How to Use the Deflate Gate Engine
What This Engine Does
The Deflate Gate Engine predicts the probability that a specific NFL team scores a touchdown in a specific quarter. This is a binary outcome -- either they score a TD or they don't. The engine uses the Rigg Binary Model framework: historical base rates + offensive strength + defensive weakness + game context + quarter-specific patterns + injury impact.
Step-by-Step Workflow
1. Select the target team (the team you're considering betting to score) and their opponent.
2. Set home/away and check if it's a division rivalry game.
3. Enter the Vegas total and spread from your sportsbook. These are the market's best estimate of the game environment.
4. Enter weather data for outdoor stadiums (check weather.com for game-time forecast). Dome games auto-neutralize weather.
5. Set QB status and count key injuries on both sides.
6. Click Run Analysis to generate per-quarter TD probabilities.
7. Enter your sportsbook's odds for each quarter in the sidebar to see edge comparison in the Odds tab.
8. After the game, click LOG WIN or LOG LOSS to track your accuracy.
Reading the Quarter Cards
Each card shows three probabilities:
TD% -- probability the target team scores at least one touchdown in that quarter
FG% -- probability of at least one field goal
Any% -- probability of any scoring (TD or FG)
Edge classification:
STRONG (72%+) -- high conviction, bet with confidence
MOD (55-72%) -- moderate, check odds for edge
WEAK (below 55%) -- pass, probability too low
TD% -- probability the target team scores at least one touchdown in that quarter
FG% -- probability of at least one field goal
Any% -- probability of any scoring (TD or FG)
Edge classification:
STRONG (72%+) -- high conviction, bet with confidence
MOD (55-72%) -- moderate, check odds for edge
WEAK (below 55%) -- pass, probability too low
Quarter Patterns
Q1 (~62% avg): Teams settling in. Run-heavy game plans. Some fast starters (Chiefs, Bills) exceed 75%+.
Q2 (~72% avg): Highest scoring quarter. Offenses warmed up + 2-minute drill opportunity adds extra possession.
Q3 (~55% avg): Lowest scoring. Halftime adjustments, conservative play calling, often run-heavy to start.
Q4 (~68% avg): Urgency for trailing teams + prevent defense gives up big plays. Garbage time inflates TD rates for underdogs.
Q2 (~72% avg): Highest scoring quarter. Offenses warmed up + 2-minute drill opportunity adds extra possession.

Key Rules
1. Never bet Q3 TDs unless TD% > 68%. Q3 is the lowest-scoring quarter by far.
2. Backup QB = automatic pass. A backup drops TD probability by ~12 points.
3. Check the Odds tab. A 70% TD probability at -250 odds is a losing bet. Only bet when edge > 2%.
4. Weather matters. Freezing temps + high wind can suppress TD rates by 5-8 points at outdoor stadiums.
