# Matt Severance — prediction record

Matt Severance writes NFL coverage for CBS Sports, where he digs into futures odds, player props, and weekly matchup parlays. His work spans the league—from AFC South championship chances to Offensive Rookie of the Year betting action—with a clear eye for where the money is moving and why.

## Record

- **Accuracy:** 100%
- **MissedTakes Score:** 0
- **Graded articles:** 2
- **Graded individual calls:** 2
- **Clarity:** 100%

PROVISIONAL: fewer than 10 graded articles. This number is not yet meaningful, and they are excluded from leaderboards.

The MissedTakes Score is how much better than a naive baseline they did, not how often they were right. Zero means no better than a strategy requiring no knowledge. A record is counted in ARTICLES rather than individual calls, because thirty picks in one mock draft is one act of judgment rather than thirty.
