# Pete Prisco — prediction record

Pete Prisco covers the NFL for CBS Sports and Sports Illustrated, with appearances on the Locked On Packers podcast. The predictions here touch teams across the league, from the Jaguars and Cowboys to the Lions and Packers, including weekly game picks, Super Bowl forecasts and power rankings.

## Is Pete Prisco accurate?

Across 203 graded calls in 47 articles, Pete Prisco scores 58.6% accuracy and a MissedTakes Score of 17.02, which means their calls were better than a naive guess on the same claims. That is an established record: thirty or more graded articles. That ranks #51 of 87 ranked NFL pundits on the MissedTakes leaderboard.

## Record

- **Accuracy:** 58.6%
- **MissedTakes Score:** 17.02
- **Graded articles:** 47
- **Graded individual calls:** 203
- **Clarity:** 99.07%
- **Hedged:** 9.38% of claims
- **Right when hedging:** not enough data
- **Right when committing:** not enough data

This is an established record: 30 or more graded articles.

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.
