Model ensemble · how the prediction is built
Each sub-model uses a different rating substrate. Bayesian model averaging weights them by rolling Brier score so the ensemble inherits each model's strengths. Disagreement flags games where the sub-models don't see eye-to-eye — lower confidence, wider band.

Vegas opened SD as a 1.5-point favorite with the total at 7.5. WSH's moneyline implies a 49% break-even, SD the inverse. WSH is on a back-to-back.
For bettors: the SD side carries the favorite-tax, the dog gets the points and a plus-money payout. The 7.5 total reads defensive vs the league average.
