I saw that too.   Didn't make sense at the time to me either. 

like Mike showed 

@LeviF91 is 0-90 

Life has been interesting the past two months so that’s my bad. I’m gonna start and see how many people I can overtake.

          Years ago I read that typically the winner in this type of contest finishes with a 66% win percentage.  It sounded low to me.  Over the years I have watched and that is pretty close to being right on.  If I remember correctly, last year the first two finishers were just above that.  I can't remember if I figured in the throw out or not.  At the moment position 42 and above have a higher win percentage than 66%. 

        It might make it a bit more interesting for you if you compare your position by percentage, ignoring the weeks you missed.  

 

       I believe when we first started doing this here, there was an option for auto-pick.  It was nice if you forgot a week but at the same time it would do something like picking the Jets every week.   I usually make my picks Monday or Tuesday, and then edit them before Thursday/Sunday.  I believe if you wanted to you could pick the entire year in one shot.

@whatdrought You've been en fuego from the get go with your best counted 'worst week' being 10 correct (this is excluding your 0 correct from Week 6). It's a rolling overall total so everybody's worst week is dropped, hence the 'Dropped' column in the standings. Prior to your no picks/0 correct week, your dropped week was 10 correct (Week 5). After Week 6, your prior dropped week of 10 correct was added to your counted overall correct total score and 0 correct became your new dropped worst week. That will not change for you going forward since you can't get a score less than zero. Every week from now on will count towards your total whether it's 0, 16, or somewhere in-between. 

 

@SlimShady'sSpaceForce Oddly, Week 6 was your worst week, as well, with a total of 6 correct. Unlike, whatdrought, your total is still rolling so if you have a week going forward with a total of less than 6 correct, that week will be dropped as your 'worst week' and your Week 6 will be added and count towards your overall correct total score.

Ah, I appreciate the clarity! I didn’t realize there was a dropped week. 


I definitely feel a 2000-2016 Bills level collapse coming for myself...

So is Rapemoreburger going to play?

Pittsburgh Steelers Participation/Injury Report, Week 10

Wednesday, November 11
WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (Knee) - DNP
CB MIke Hilton (Shoulder) - Full
FB Derek Watt (Hamstring) - Full
C Maurkice Pouncey (NIR) - DNP
G David DeCastro (NIR) - DNP
T Alejandro Villanueva (NIR) - DNP
TE Eric Ebron (NIR) - DNP
DE Stephon Tuitt (NIR) - DNP
DE Tyson Alualu (Knee) - Limited

quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, inside linebacker Vince Williams, tackle Jerald Hawkins, and running back Jaylen Samuels all missed practice on Wednesday as all are currently on the team’s Reserve/COVID-19 list. The hope is that all four players will be cleared to play against the Bengals by Saturday. Tight end Vance McDonald won’t play against the Bengals as he’s now on the Reserve/COVID-19 list after testing positive for the virus a few days ago.

There were some big moves this week. I went from 26 to 11. 

 

I took some risks that didn't pan out. I picked Washington over Detroit and Chargers over Miami.
