How each call scored
11 checkable claims — 7 season win totals, 3 depth chart calls and 1 team draft slot call — 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.
None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.
Of the 11 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 3 and below it on 8.
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.
