takes graded
16,345 awaiting a result
2,691 graded takes land strictly between the extremes, and the shape has a story: the counts climb as the scores improve. A take that earns partial credit is far more likely to be nearly right than nearly wrong.
This is where the curve-graded kinds live — mock draft picks (2,017), score predictions (490) and depth chart calls (198) — the kinds where missing by a little costs a little, not everything.

I'm going to take the Denver Broncos... Minus two and a half against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Chicago Bears to beat Minnesota Vikings
Take the bears minus four and a half.
Denver Broncos to beat Jaguars
I think this is where the Broncos show up. We see the team we thought we might see in week one. Week one's a liar. Give me the Broncos. Land the two and a half.
Chicago Bears to beat Vikings
I said they were liars. They can't. I just don't see them doing that again. But they're going to cover. So I'm taking the Bears.
Los Angeles Rams to beat Giants
I got the Rams. I don't believe the Giants at all... I just think the Rams bounce back... And they deliver the goods on Monday night.
Los Angeles Rams to beat Giants
I'm going to say weak one's a liar. I like the Rams land the points... So give me the Rams.
Cincinnati Bengals to beat Texans
I'll take Cincinnati. Not a believer in Houston at the quarterback position... I'll take the Bengals to win that game outright.
New England Patriots to beat Steelers
I think the Steelers keep it close. I think New England probably wins that game, but I'll take Pittsburgh getting the points.
New York Giants to beat Los Angeles Rams
That record will drop to 4-1 after John Harbaugh's Giants go into SoFi Stadium and leave with a "Monday Night Football" road win.

Los Angeles Rams to beat Giants
America's team, New York football guy Yeah. Play until Monday. And I think this is a prime spot for the Rams, man. Let me just say it now.
New England Patriots 27 — Pittsburgh 14
