- Scores grade the decision, not the result. Projections (35%), consensus start rate (35%), and rankings (30%) set a pre-game score; the actual points gap only adds 15% when those signals were already strong.
- Severity bands. Questionable 0–20, bad decision 20–40, egregious 40–70 (brass), catastrophic 70–90 and legendary 90+ (ember).
- Multipliers. Starting an Out/IR player adds 40, doubtful 20, questionable 5; volatile positions (WR, RB) scale up; weeks 1–6 are discounted unless the mistake was obvious, and weeks 14+ (and the championship) count double or more.
- Filters. The team and week selects at the top apply to the severity chart, the twenty worst decisions, and the full list. Season-long patterns always cover the whole league.
- Staying off the list. Check injury reports, follow consensus, trust projections, start your studs, and set lineup reminders for Thursday night and Sunday morning.
