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 rankings are actually Danny's rankings go Mahomes, Alan Burrow, Lamar, Herbert, Stafford, Jaden Goff, Baker, Hurts.
I don't think it's outrageous to go offensive rookie of the year... So I would say offensive Rookie of the Year would be on the table for sure.
I think the Bronx is gonna be pretty good. And if he's good and you have an elite defense, they're gonna win eleven twelve games.
Could Hampton be a thirteen hundred yard rusher and have ten plus touchdowns because he's it's pretty freaking good.
Could Hampton be a thirteen hundred yard rusher and have ten plus touchdowns
does Matt Stafford start Week one? I would lean yes, even though I have no more information than anyone else
I will stick with what I said. I think Daniel Jones gonna be the starting quarterback.
So Hampton was gonna start over him regardless... So I think Hardball would ride Hampton like a like secretariat
But I mean, let's say I would be already established Steelers are a nine to ten win team easily.
This says the twenty twenty five NFL Power Rankings, according to NFL. On Fox... One of their lead NFL guys, Ralph Facciano. He compiled this... Broncos at sixteen, Bears at seventeen, Niners at eighteen... nineteen Cowboys, twenty, Jags, Seahawks, twenty one, Patriots, Raiders, Dolphins, Falcons, Giants, Jets, Panthers, Cults, Titans, Saints, and Browns in last place at thirty two.
The Rams have won over ten games in six of the eight years with Sean McVay... I just can't quit the Rams
then Ravens under eleven and a half... I think that they can be a ten win team
The Eagles aren't over team. They're totals at eleven and a half
I'm definitely picking them for over at ten and a half... That's still an eleven or twelve win team.
Over at nine and a half
The Packers are under at nine and a half... I think it's more like an eight win season for the Packers.
Bengals are double did you win team.
I think they hit their over on five and a half wins... I think they can eke out six wins.
that's an under... For them at nine and a half... win seven eight games
the Raiders go over on six and a half
They're a thirteen win team until proven otherwise.
Mike Tomlin's gonna get you to over eight and a half
I think the Falcons are an overteam, same with the Panthers... They can win seven games.
They're a nine or a ten win team this season.
The Giants are an over team for me at five and a half
