# nobody took the under for Houston, but for the purposes I took Vince's late 12.5 under.
* Odds refers to the over/under that I found on OddsChecker on September 5th, shortly before the season opener. Because the over/under figure varied per broker, I took the average for each team and normalized. For example: New England was highest with most brokers giving an over/under of 11 or 11.5 wins. Normalized from 257.5 to 256 wins combined for all teams, it came down to 11.2 wins. FOFC set the over at 10.5 and the under at 11.5, after normalizing from 258 to 256 wins gives 10.9. New England's current record is 10-5. That last figure is obviously not set in stone yet, with next weekend's results to come.
