One checkable claim, graded on its own against what actually happened.

It names 2 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

Nothing to score yet: this grades once the result is in.

Of the 1 unsettled call enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands below the rest of the room.

> the Ravens traded for former Cardinals starter Jacoby Brissett, who is expected to take over under center for the remainder of the season.
