Panthers -5.4 -2.9 -2.5 -2
Saints -5.2 -1.1 -4.1 +11

Counted from the weeks each man actually held his team — so a franchise that changed hands is not credited to whoever has it now. Nothing above is a playcall: the export does not carry those, and neither does this.
THE SERIES Casp against AL-Saints — the men, not the teams
All square at 1-1. AL-Saints won the last one.
2 meetings avg 30.0 — 24.5 biggest: 25 pts to Casp
S1 · week 14 Casp 21 — 35 AL-Saints AL-SAINTS
S1 · week 10 Casp 39 — 14 AL-Saints CASP
Only meetings Sapphire can attribute to both men are counted — a Madden export never says who owned a team last season, so the series starts where the record does.

Bold is the side that won that line. Giveaways come off a team's own offensive rows and takeaways off its own defensive rows — two separate payloads, so they need not tie out against each other.
