# Jordan Dajani: Dajani gave final-score picks for seven Week 6 games, taking Seattle over Denver, upsets by Houston in London and Carolina in Philadelphia, Atlanta over Chicago, Baltimore over Cleveland, Green Bay over Dallas and San Francisco over Washington.

9 checkable claims — 7 score predictions and 2 availability calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

7 of 9 have settled so far, averaging 69.7 out of 100, against 63.8 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> I predict they keep that momentum going and score an upset victory across the pond.

## What others said about the same people

- Parker Hurley on Khalid Kareem: Hurley predicts the 49ers will release Khalil Kareem when Nate Hobbs is activated and cut Brandin Cooks when C.J. West returns, while arguing Sebastian Valdez won't be the one let go and no cornerback will be cut. — https://missedtakes.co/opinions/5a729417-69ee-493a-9bec-d905fd1a7082 (scored 0)
