  "summary": "The headline, dek, and body claims match the evidence bundle, the null 15+ mph accuracy result and the non-significant 10+ mph component effects are disclosed rather than spun, and the association-only scope and 2024 data cutoff are stated. No falsifying alternate reading survives the article's own caveats.",

      "severity": "warning",
      "check": "over-application",
      "evidence": "analysis.json#effects (kicker_fantasy_points, units points-per-game); article paragraph 2",
      "recommendation": "The -1.3 to -1.9 point scoring gaps are combined across both teams' kickers per game, so the expected impact on any single kicker a fantasy manager is ranking is roughly half that (about 0.7 to 1.0 points). The article discloses that figures are combined, but never translates this into per-kicker terms. A reader deciding between two kickers (the lead's framing) could over-apply the headline gap by roughly 2x. Add one sentence making the per-kicker translation explicit."
    },
    {
      "severity": "warning",
      "check": "causal framing",
      "evidence": "dek ('Wind costs kickers...'); lead ('the wind matters')",
      "recommendation": "The dek and lead use causal-sounding language ('costs', 'matters') while the study is association-only. The body and limitations clearly disclose this, and the final paragraph explicitly withholds causal and forecast claims, so this is a disclosed limitation rather than a fatal flaw. Consider softening the dek to association language for consistency."

      "evidence": "analysis.json#effects controls field ('week and season fixed effects; air temp c')",
      "recommendation": "Windy games may differ in offense quality, stadium type (open-air venues in specific markets), or game script in ways the controls do not capture. The article discloses this directly ('Windy games may differ from calm games in other ways the controls do not capture'), so no change is required."

      "severity": "note",
      "check": "standalone headline integrity",
      "evidence": "article.title; publication_assets.figures[0].alt/caption",
      "recommendation": "With series label, dek, and nearby text removed, the title still names the subject (NFL kicker fantasy points), the outcome (fall), the comparison frame (10/12/15+ mph wind), and the time frame (through the 2024 NFL season). The figure alt text and caption name the subject, outcomes, comparison, and period. No undefined 'hit'/'better' shorthand appears; all percentages and point values are defined in-line."

      "evidence": "wind-15-mph field_goal_accuracy (Holm p 0.256, CI -7.3 to +2.0); article paragraph 4",
      "recommendation": "The article correctly frames the 15+ mph accuracy estimate as a null finding and warns against reading it as evidence of a further drop. The non-monotonic accuracy pattern (largest drop at 12+ mph, smaller point estimate at 15+ mph) is presented honestly rather than smoothed into a dose-response story."

      "evidence": "source_lag (requested_through 2025, available_through 2024); article final paragraph",
      "recommendation": "The study stops at 2024 because observed weather data end there, and the article states this. The freshness requirement's minimum season is 2024, so the cutoff is within scope, but readers applying this in the 2025-2026 season should be aware the estimates do not cover the most recent season; the article says the estimates 'stop there.'"
