Hirschhorn argued that Savion Williams, the Packers' 2025 third-round receiver, can and should fill the change-of-pace/backup running back role behind Josh Jacobs in 2026, saying they can probably do it at a high level. They also treated Kyler Murray as Minnesota's starting quarterback for the season opener.

How each call scored
2 checkable claims — 2 depth chart calls — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.
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.
