How the 10,000 sims landed

How to read this chart

The game is played 10,000 times. Line up every final margin from CLE's biggest win to NYJ's biggest win, then show them as 100 dots: each dot stands for 100 sims.

Dots further right are bigger NYJ wins. Filled dots are sims where NYJ covers the market line (the dashed mark); hollow ones are where CLE covers.

Count the filled dots and you have the cover chance. A wide spread means the result is hard to call.
