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.

And I think we're I like the Colts in this game
Look, Arizona is my survivor. There, it is there, it is
I look, Buffalo is going to the playoffs.
because I do think they're going to go to Jackson Dart early
Oh yeah, I could see them making the playoffs. A lot of other stuff has to go wrong injury wise for other teams in the AFC West
Whenever you know Austin Eckler, I would guess we'll have the most snaps of any of them.
You have to bring an Adam Thelen to be your number two, granted only for like three weeks.
Which is why let's go Dolphins ... which is why they are my Survivor Picks Week one.
I think that's a big blow for the Jets in this game, which is why I do like Aaron Rodgers coming back and getting some
But the Ravens over the Commanders keeping a d crab cakes mambo sauce.
But I mean, this defense is too good and the Bonix is a real toual, So you know me, I'm you know what I do.
I'm picking the Houston Texans ... And I have them going over the Eagles
I'm picking to Baltimore Ravens to the super Bowl again ... I've got Ravens Overpacker.
you mentioned Dante Thornton, this this rookie who I think is still going to start
they're getting Brian Robinson, they're gonna use him like they use a lot of their other running backs. Well, he'll probably be the third quarter guy.
and Luther Burden, who looks pretty interesting, is like the number four
So I'm gonna enjoy watching those great highlights in a totally one sided game. And that's why I'm taking the Broncos as my survivor.
I am most proud of me sticking to my New York Giants gut feeling
Michael Parsons, you are new to the Green Bay Packer and you are the NFL Defensive Player of the Year story.
Oh, I have Jalen Carter... Who will win the Defensive Player of the Year
the San Francisco forty nine ers pick in the wild card round at the NFC Division, I'm really really proud of
I also have the Chargers.
do you see russ or Dart taking that first snap? Jackson Dart?
we all three have the Bucks and the Ravens in the playoffs
The Defensive Player of the Year is going to be aided. Hutchinson from the Detroit Lions
