THE WIDER PICTURE
Team SRS SOS MARGIN TO +/-
Giants +4.2 +0.9 +3.3 +3
Commanders -13.7 +1.9 -15.5 -27

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 CAM against mc — the men, not the teams
CAM leads it 2-0. CAM has won 2 straight.
2 meetings avg 42.0 — 16.0 biggest: 33 pts to CAM
S1 · week 10 CAM 35 — 16 mc CAM
S1 · week 5 CAM 49 — 16 mc CAM
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.
