5 checkable claims — 4 game outcome picks and 1 score prediction — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 5 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

None of them have settled yet — they grade once their results are in.

> If the 49ers don't win this game by double digits, I would be surprised.
