How each call scored
13 checkable claims — 7 pro bowl and all-pro calls, 4 depth chart calls, 1 roster spot call and 1 top player list — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.
It names 13 players and teams, each linked to their own record.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 3 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 2 and below it on 1.
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.
