And in Week 6, it nailed the Patriots (-17) covering a large spread against the Giants and the Seahawks (+1) winning straight-up as underdogs against the Browns.

Anyone who has followed it is way up.
Now, it has simulated Redskins vs. 49ers 10,000 times and the results are in. We can tell you that the model is leaning Over, and it's also generated a point-spread pick that is hitting in over 50 percent of simulations. You can only see the pick at SportsLine.
Winning the game while simultaneously losing what could be the first overall draft pick in 2020, the Redskins nipped the equally woeful Dolphins 17-16 last week. Washington's first victory of the season came via a failed Miami two-point conversion with six seconds to play. Rookie wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught four passes for 100 yards and two touchdowns in Washington's victory, his second 100-yard receiving effort of 2019.
The 49ers, meanwhile, could be the most impressive team in the NFL so far this season, undefeated at 5-0 after thumping the defending NFC champion Rams 20-7 last week. Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo passed for 243 yards in the game and also rushed for a touchdown, and the running back tandem of Tevin Coleman and Matt Breida combined for 81 yards and a score. But it was San Francisco's defense that truly shined, allowing just 157 total yards to the Rams and stifling Los Angeles QB Jared Goff to the tune of 78 passing yards.
The Redskins have given up 19 touchdowns so far this season, the third most allowed in the NFL. On the other sideline, the 49ers enter Sunday's showdown having allowed just one rushing touchdown, the fewest in the NFL.
