# Jeremy Brener — prediction record

Jeremy Brener covers the Seattle Seahawks for Sports Illustrated, writing on roster moves, game previews and score predictions. The coverage extends to matchups against the Cardinals, Bears and 49ers, with recurring attention to players such as Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Jalen Milroe.

## Is Jeremy Brener accurate?

Across 17 graded calls in 12 articles, Jeremy Brener scores 74.8% accuracy and a MissedTakes Score of 5.5, which means their calls were better than a naive guess on the same claims. That is a limited sample, under thirty graded articles, so treat it with caution. That ranks #64 of 87 ranked NFL pundits on the MissedTakes leaderboard.

## Record

- **Accuracy:** 74.8%
- **MissedTakes Score:** 5.5
- **Graded articles:** 12
- **Graded individual calls:** 17
- **Clarity:** 100%
- **Hedged:** 60.79% of claims
- **Right when hedging:** not enough data
- **Right when committing:** not enough data

LIMITED SAMPLE: between 10 and 29 graded articles. Treat with caution.

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.
