How each call scored
13 checkable claims — 11 depth chart calls and 2 roster spot calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 14 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
1 of 13 have settled so far, averaging 0 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess at the same calls.
Of the 4 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 2.
Each call is scored 0 to 100 against what happened, on its own, by the published methodology. The naive guess is what knowing nothing would have scored on the same calls; the gap, weighted by how hard the call was, is the skill.
