Nate Silver Makes Prediction During Super Bowl (OOPS!)

Five Thirty Eight ^

[TigerClaws]

That Patriots drive took another 5:07 off the clock and actually dropped their win probability from 1.1% to 0.5%: http://53eig.ht/2kc0q5e

Obama's "expert" fails again.

hahaha

Maybe Nate Silver should be cleaning his closet instead of making all these erroneous predictions. He keeps shooting himself in the foot.

Between this and Hillary Clonton’s ninety-however many percent chance of winning the election, Nate Silver doesn’t appear to be having a very good year.

[jjotto]

heh heh

Since going to the 16-game schedule, the NFL has played more than 20,000 games. That one-half of one percent leads one to expect over 100 of those games with such an improbable outcome.

Ha-ha-ha! X 1000000000000^9

Only 50 previous Super Bowls, though. Also note that lots of those games are either games between division winners vs. division patsies, and others are end of year play out the string kind of games.

The Falcons had the talent to go toe to toe with the Patriots, buit the defense collectively fell apart in the fourth quarter. Quinn may have gone into a run the clock out prevent in the late third, DON'T TRY THAT against Belichik. RUN UP THE SCORE if you can.

Did anybody find out who that guy was with the #12 jersey in the first half?

[Old Teufel Hunden]

Granted, the New England Patriots did win the Super Bowl but the Falcons scored more points during the regular season. We can’t forget that. We can’t consider this Patriots win a mandate in any shape or form....

[drop 50 and fire for effect]

Silver generally goes where probability and historical experience tell him.

Unfortunately for him, numbers and historical experience are only part of the equation. In sports, like in politics and war, human emotion, random chance, and other intangible, un-quantifiable factors occur in reality. However it is impossible to factor them into any algorithm.

[sarasota]

But the Falcons won the popular vote!

[jmaroneps37]

Natie Silver a fake “expert” and Shaun King fake Negro make fake statements about a fake outcome of a real game what could go wrong?

[tosh]

As much as I like to see Nate Silver squirm, there is nothing inaccurate as to what he posted. Those truly were the Falcons’ chance of winning at that time in the game. Now the election is a different story. All predictions relied on false and misleading polls.(Garbage in and Garbage out) The Super Bowl percentages, however, relied on actual real-time data.

and the Cubs prediction?

Don’t forget our fake indian warren.

Nate’s popular website FiveThirthEight needs some more numbers crunching. Nate’s correct prediction stats are going down the tubes fast.

[Enlightened1]

Nate went to work at ESPN and was fired because he was so bad. No one was giving him the fixed numbers and thus the viewers saw the true Nate Silver. Which is horribly wrong. This is because he lets his politics trump his numbers.

I’m convinced someone gave Nate Silver the fixed election numbers in 2008 and 2012. This is also why Nate Silver refuses to share his method while others will.

Nate Silver is a FRAUD and a FAKE. Hence, why he was so wrong in 2016 and now the Super Bowl.
