OPEN

Checked — 1 thing to know before you publish

What we can verify is that we ingested the provider faithfully and that our own arithmetic agrees with itself. We cannot verify the field.

WITH CAVEATS

Integrity job ran recently — 710 checks, 334 minutes ago.
7 invariants failing site-wide — mart.drive_scoring_matches_result, game.final_but_incomplete, team_season.no_ties, …. These are not yet scoped to a team, so we cannot say whether they touch this one.
Game is final — The provider has marked it complete.
Box score complete — 67 team rows, 648 player rows, 30 drives, 187 plays.
Mart is current — Rebuilt 2026-09-18 20:24Z.

These checks are site-wide, not yet scoped to one team. A per-team, per-metric verdict is what mart.product_readiness will carry; until it exists, treat a clean panel as “nothing known to be wrong” rather than “this team is confirmed clean”.

Every column is that team’s offense, which is also what the other team’s defense allowed — CFBD reports a defense as the opponent’s offense restated. Bold marks the better number in a row; a higher stuff rate is a worse offense, so it reads the other way.

What is not here yet

Stated so nobody publishes on the assumption that it is.

Written storylines. The generator is not built; this is the evidence it will be written from.
Per-team readiness. The checks above are site-wide until mart.product_readiness exists.
Coverage boundaries as data — so “first ever” claims are not supported at any confidence yet.
