I thought it would be interesting to see how each coach reacts coming off a loss as a favorite – both as a favorite and an underdog in the next contest. The results were pretty remarkable. For example, Joe Gibbs (not listed), is 2-8 against the spread after losing as a favorite. He’s a Hall-of-Fame coach, but perhaps Gibbs should have bought a couple of Herm Edwards’ motivational DVDs. On second thought, after looking at Edwards’ records, maybe that’s not such a good idea. All records since 2002. |
