Cortana Picks Saints to Beat GB

Microsoft Cortana had a solid Week 7, correctly predicting 11 of 15 NFL games.

It's now 69-37 (65%) on the year.

Cortana is a Windows Phone virtual assistant that's using an algorithm from Bing Predicts to pick every NFL game. The system correctly predicted 15 of 16 World Cup knockout stage games. After a so-so start to the NFL season, Cortana is 35-10 (78%) in the last three weeks.


Week 7 was another strong week for favorites across the board. Even though there were some high profile upsets (the Seahawks and Chargers both lost), Cortana went 11-4, Vegas favorites went 11-4, and Nate Silver's ELO model went 10-5.

On the season, Vegas favorites have a straight-up record of 70-36 and ELO is 74-32.
