Edge is model probability minus the market's implied probability, in percentage points. One published number per market: where our sources disagreed we publish the most conservative defensible figure, and where they disagreed by more than 15 points the row is a conflict and carries no stake. ¼ Kelly is the share of a bankroll quarter-Kelly would put on the row at the published price — click it to size against your own bankroll on our Kelly calculator, or call kelly_size from our MCP server inside your own agent.
Watch: the Packers–Vikings Week 1 read
Watch: why our model made Green Bay a 60% road favorite in Minneapolis while Kalshi had the Packers near 49% — the Week 1 gap behind the 11-point edge.
What the clip covers
- The model made Green Bay a 60% favorite on the road in Minneapolis; Kalshi was pricing the Packers near 49% when the clip published on July 29, 2026 — a gap of roughly 11 points.
- The gap is the position, not the side. A market favorite is only worth holding when the model number sits meaningfully above the traded price — picking the winner and finding an edge are two different jobs.
- Week 1 lines price off how last season ended, which is where our power ratings and the market diverge most — openers are the widest part of the season for model-vs-market disagreement.
- The clip quotes a July 29 snapshot. The model and Kalshi figures in the tile above this section recompute hourly, so treat the 11-point number as where the read started, not where it stands today.

NFC North math: Packers at Vikings
Green Bay Packers at Minnesota Vikings is a NFC North game, the first of two meetings, with the rematch in Week 10. The model has the Packers by 3 (60%) off a -2.6 to +3.0 rating gap. Division games carry weight the model does not price: head-to-head is the first tiebreaker in the NFC North, so a win here is worth more in January than the standings column shows.
The sharpest unit gap in the game runs one way: the Packers offense grades +3.3 (5th of 32) against a Vikings defense at -0.5 (15th) — 3.8 points of separation on our scale, and the single biggest reason the line sits where it does. Going the other direction, the Vikings offense (-2.5, 28th) meets the Packers defense (-0.5, 14th), a 2.0-point gap.
On the standings side, NFC North games are the ones that decide the tiebreakers. Head-to-head record is the first tiebreaker between two teams in the same division, and division record is the next — so the value of this result is not just the win column. They meet again in Week 10, which makes a sweep the outcome with real leverage on the NFC North race.
Zoom out to the full season and the model projects the Vikings at 7.2 wins (favored in 4 of 17) and the Packers at 9.7 (favored in 13) — 2.6 wins apart across the year. By win probability this is the 8th-hardest game on the Vikings' schedule and the 9th-hardest on the Packers'.
Recent history, for context only: 48 regular-season meetings since 2002, 26-20 in the Packers' favour, plus 2 playoff games. They last met in 2025: Vikings won 16-3 in January. Over their last 4 meetings the Vikings are 3-1. It is not an input to the line — rosters turn over faster than series records do.
Does the model earn this number? In 666 of the 3266 walk-forward games it has been graded on (2013-2024, no market line used), it landed in the 60-65% range. Those favourites went 59%. The 60% on the Packers here sits in that same band, and the history runs slightly behind the claim.
Kalshi's KXNFLGAME-26SEP13GBMIN contract implies 53% for the Vikings against our 40% — a 12.6-point gap. That clears our 5-point threshold, which flags the Packers as the value side at 48c.
