# Clarence Hill: Clarence predicted an 11-6 Cowboys season, picking wins over the Giants, Commanders, Ravens, Packers, Cardinals, Colts and Titans while giving losses to Houston, Tampa Bay, both Eagles games, the 49ers, Seahawks and Rams. **Claimed:** Sep 3, 2026 **Pundit:** Clarence Hill — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/pundits/clarence-hill **Outlet:** DLLS Dallas Cowboys (podcast) — https://missedtakes.thegoodapps.co/outlets/dlls-dallas-cowboys-podcast **How it reached us:** said on air, transcribed by us **Original:** https://tracking.swap.fm/track/xt6bq09fJCm8CxP7DUGF/dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/pscrb.fm/rss/p/mgln.ai/e/822/claritaspod.com/measure/prfx.byspotify.com/e/injector.simplecastaudio.com/d5ae5375-e417-4df4-8c3d-3d7ba352b111/episodes/44b7b182-a5ff-445e-8d75-809a3878b4fa/audio/128/default.mp3?aid=rss_feed&awCollectionId=d5ae5375-e417-4df4-8c3d-3d7ba352b111&awEpisodeId=44b7b182-a5ff-445e-8d75-809a3878b4fa&feed=4Fqey2NA 14 checkable claims — 11 game outcome picks, 2 season win totals and 1 trade and signing call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet. It names 10 players and teams, each linked to their own record. 1 of 14 have settled so far, averaging 0 out of 100, against 100 for a naive guess at the same calls. Of the 2 unsettled calls enough other pundits have weighed in on, this one lands above the room on 1 and below it on 1. > So, Clarence, you have eleven and six.
