Every take from Nate Tice, including the ones still waiting →

Is Nate Tice accurate? Across 37 graded calls in 5 articles, Nate Tice scores 73.54% accuracy and a MissedTakes Score of 22.81, 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.

Versus a naive guess. 0 means no better.

Graded calls

across 5 articles. 20 more not yet settled.

Fewer than 10 graded articles. Treat this as provisional.

100% of their claims were specific enough to check. Most of what they said committed to something.

Every number here is computed from the published methodology, and every call below shows its own arithmetic.

What they call, and how it goes

The record split by kind of claim — five graded calls minimum before a kind shows here. A pundit can be sharp on drafts and ordinary on game picks, and averaging that away is how a number stops meaning anything.
