The field, on one line

Every pundit's win-total call for a team, against the season's actual number — the dark bar. A number is a dot; a range someone named, like 9–10 wins, is a pill across it. A tight cluster far from the bar is the whole industry missing together; the lone dot near the bar is somebody who left the herd and was right. Click a call to read the take it came from.

Everyone was wrong about…

The field's average call against what happened. A range of three wins or fewer counts at its middle; a wider range, or an open-ended call like double digits, names no single number and is left out. Green means the team beat punditry's number — underrated; red means the field bought a story the season didn't.
