How each call scored

9 checkable claims — 6 season win totals, 1 depth chart call, 1 division winner and 1 mock draft pick — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 9 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

1 of 9 have settled so far, averaging 2.6 out of 100, against 50 for a naive guess at the same calls.

Of the 7 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 5.

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.
