The middle ground
The same graded calls, zoomed to the bands between the spikes — every take that earned partial credit.
Takes in each band
1,344 graded takes land strictly between the extremes, and the shape has a story: the counts climb as the scores improve. A take that earns partial credit is far more likely to be nearly right than nearly wrong.
This is where the curve-graded kinds live — mock draft picks (914), season win totals (151) and positional finishes (130) — the kinds where missing by a little costs a little, not everything.

The Seattle Seahawks will be the number one spot this week in my power rankings... because number two is going to the Philadelphia Eagles... Number three, I got the Rams. Number four, the New England Patriots... and number five with an MVPAK candidate in the backfield, the Indianapolis Coats.
The Packers have the Giants. That should be a win for them, especially with Jackson Dart potentially out with that concussion.
Jonathan Taylor should be the NFL Player of the Year, the most valuable Player, whatever you want to say, because of how he's playing.
I think this could be the year he can get show that he can get an MVP, you know what I'm saying... He's twenty two with two picks right now, like leading it up there in the MVP race.
hey, he listen, don't hurt right now, seas the coach of the year. Mike Raabe period, Mike Raby.
I think the charge. I think the Steelers win this game, and if they don't, I think it's a last second type of game.
So all lay three and a half with Caleb... Chicago minus three and a half, and I just don't trust the Giants
so as good as New England's been, I think Tampa wins this game, and I think Tampa wins this game by at least a field goal.

will take advantage of it Chicago minus three and a half. And I just don't trust the Giants ... So all lay three and a half with Caleb.
I think the charge I think the Steelers win this game, and if they don't, I think it's a last second type of game. I'm getting three points.
I like the Bucks at home to win and cover twenty seven to twenty three
I like the Colts in Berlin minus five and a half... Indy to win and cover thirty three twenty four
I believe the winners are Kansas City over the Colts
and I think I would take Josh Allen over Lamar
and then I'll take Buffalo and Pittsburgh to remain the same
and then I'll take Buffalo and Pittsburgh to remain the same
the Ravens to replace the Chargers, even though the records right now don't feel that way
I think Mendoza and Dante Moore are going to go one and two. That's my guess.
I think the Bears could end up like supplanting San Francisco as a wild card team.
I like the Lions to win. I like another favorite here thirty three twenty one.
Ravens win and the Ravens cover. It's an urgent week for Baltimore and next week in the week after thirty to twenty.
I'm gonna take the underdog Steelers plus three... I got an upset twenty four, twenty three
I'll put Kansas City to replace the Jags as a wild card team.
I think Mendoza and Dante Moore are going to go one and two. That's my guess.
