Previewing Week 7, she suggests the 4-2 Browns should beat the 1-5 Titans, while framing nearly every other matchup as an open question rather than a pick.

“The Browns are 4–2, and this is a game they should win, but the Titans could pull off a second consecutive victory if their pass rush is able to stunt the Browns' offense.”

Each one is scored on its own against the published methodology. A pundit naming several outcomes is graded on each, not on all-or-nothing. Game calls show that game’s closing betting line under their grade: a dated fact from nflverse, for context and never part of a grade.
