4 checkable claims — 4 conference champions — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing bet.

It names 4 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

All 4 have settled, averaging 0 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> Well, Detroit I mean, I know they got beat by Kansas City last week, but on the NFC side, Detroit looks looks really good.
