Pace vs the field

Caleb Williams is on pace for 4,380 passing yards — 1,546 through 6 games — against the field's median call of 4,000 from 6 pundits (on pace with the field).

Who’s high on him, who’s low
Each pundit’s standing lean on Caleb Williams, measured against every other pundit who made a comparable call — same kind of claim, same season. +100 would mean the most bullish voice in every room; −100 the most bearish. At least two articles per pundit before a lean is shown, and the accuracy is how that pundit’s settled calls about him have graded out. A lean is a fact about the pundit, never a judgment of the player.
