# Tyler Sullivan: Looking ahead to Week 4, Sullivan expects the Titans to pull Cam Ward in Baltimore and turn to Mitch Trubisky, and he expects the Vikings to beat Miami and shut the Dolphins out at home.

4 checkable claims — 1 availability call, 1 depth chart call, 1 game outcome pick and 1 score prediction — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

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 above the rest of the room.

> I think Brian Flores could make it his personal mission to hand his former team a goose egg on Sunday.

Accuracy is 0-100 against what actually happened. The naive guess is what a strategy requiring no knowledge would have scored on the same call — the difference is the skill, and it is what the MissedTakes Score averages.
