Bengals -4.0 +0.5 -4.5 -3
Browns -4.3 +0.9 -5.2 -2

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 zach_13. against Coke — the men, not the teams
zach_13. leads it 2-0. zach_13. has won 2 straight.
2 meetings avg 31.5 — 20.5 biggest: 19 pts to zach_13.

S1 · week 13 zach_13. 51 — 32 Coke ZACH_13.
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.
