How this works
Your final score does most of the work: the total, the margin and the winner line up with game markets, and the size of the win shapes how each offense plays. The optional questions tell the rest of the story. What goes right for the winner points at their player markets, and what goes wrong for the loser points at unders and the teammates who pick up the slack. A tied score asks every question of both teams. When two signals pull in opposite directions on the same market, we flag it instead of forcing a side.
