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 mc against Dream — the men, not the teams
mc leads it 1-0. mc won the last one.
1 meeting avg 17.0 — 13.0 biggest: 4 pts to mc
S1 · week 17 mc 17 — 13 Dream MC
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.
