Titans +3.8 +0.9 +2.9 +6
Lions +4.8 -3.7 +8.5 +4
SRS is how many points a side beats an average team by once you account for who they played — beat a good team by 3 and it counts for more than beating a bad one by 20. SOS is how hard that schedule has been. Full table.

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 Spitz against MurdaCW — the men, not the teams
Spitz leads it 1-0. Spitz won the last one.
1 meeting avg 23.0 — 21.0 biggest: 2 pts to Spitz
S1 · week 14 Spitz 23 — 21 MurdaCW SPITZ
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.
