Who is the best NFL handicapper in the world?
With Super Bowl LVI fast approaching, the question many sports bettors are asking is “who is the best NFL handicapper in the world”?
Some will say that two time Hilton Super Contest winner Steve Fezzik is the greatest NFL handicapper of all time, but the numbers say otherwise. While Fezzik has established himself as a legendary tournament player, by his own admission he isn’t nearly as sharp when it comes to day to day NFL handicapping.
The Internet is full of professional touts claiming to be the “World’s Best”, “#1 of All Time”, or various other superlatives that in most cases can’t be proven, and are not supported by any documented records.
Here at Capperreviews we are only interested in the cold hard facts. We have taken a look at the numbers, and over the last calendar year nobody has won at a higher percentage than Rocky “Rocketman” Atkinson.

Quality over Quantity
Rocky has a philosophy of quality over quantity, and his selective approach has paid dividends to the tune of a 68% win rate and a 30% return on investment in 2021. While that answers the question: “what have you done for me lately?”, he’s a seasoned veteran with dozens of Top 5 finishes with major pro sports over the last decade.
We could make a case for a number of handicappers on our site, but the numbers say that nobody was more dialed in on the gridiron than Rocky Atkinson in 2021. If you’re looking for help with your NFL bets, you will be in good hands with The Rocketman.
