# Fox Sports — prediction record

Fox Sports is a major sports media outlet covering the NFL with a mix of injury updates, roster news, and game predictions. Their coverage spans multiple NFC teams, with particular attention to quarterback situations and depth chart movements across the league.

## Is Fox Sports accurate?

Across 8 graded calls in 8 articles, Fox Sports scores 100% accuracy and a MissedTakes Score of 95.88, which means their calls were better than a naive guess on the same claims. That is a provisional record, fewer than ten graded articles, so the numbers are not yet meaningful and they are not ranked on the leaderboard.

## Record

- **Accuracy:** 100%
- **MissedTakes Score:** 95.88
- **Graded articles:** 8
- **Graded individual calls:** 8
- **Clarity:** 100%
- **Hedged:** 61.16% of claims
- **Right when hedging:** not enough data
- **Right when committing:** not enough data

PROVISIONAL: fewer than 10 graded articles. This number is not yet meaningful, and they are excluded from leaderboards.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.
