PT also replied, but just for you to be sure: the LOWEST ranked pick for this week (and those with 14 games) is 3 POINTS.

Despite posting only 71 points for the week, wolfy333's lead grew to 8, as we saw the lowest (granted there were 2 fewer games) scores of the year. Ptmcmahon had the highest score of the week with 76, as he moved up to a pack behind wolfy with New England Nitemare and patrick.

Scoreboard

I likely won't be able to update the scoreboard for the next two weeks.

I'll update. You can check upon return.

Brady and Rogers. What lousy picks this week.

Tell me about it. Brady and Rodgers have really fallen off this season. Green Bay and Tampa Bay are now 3-4. Both may not make the playoffs this year. Although, Tampa Bay is still in 1st place in the horrible NFC South Division which doesn't have a team at .500 Green Bay is falling further behind Minnesota who's 5-1 and has already beat Green Bay this year.

Correct me if I am wrong, because I am not sure about this. Didn't GB have to let go of Davante Adams and Valdez Scalding, because Rodgers contract is too steep?
That is what happens with arrogant athletes, in team sports. Sure, he is a great QB, but he has to throw the ball to somebody.
I can understand Brady a bit more; the Bucs are missing some players. And they can win that division. Still too early to say what will happen there.

Didn't think the Bucs would lose given all that is going on with the Panthers org right now. Knew Green Bay had a decent chance of losing, just thought they would attempt to rally and get a win this week given all the noise getting louder and louder around them (the entire team, not just Aaron). I also view Taylor as a more reliable QB than Carson though, so I wasn't thinking downgrade on that front.


GB could've kept Davante Adams most likely had Aaron Rodgers made a decision much, much earlier on his contract. But he milked that media attention for all it was worth as usual making it seem like he might leave, and as everyone predicted, the longer he delayed, the worse it would be for the overall team to get other players signed. They matched Las Vegas' offer to Davante, but it was done very late in the game after a long period of uncertainty on whether or not Aaron would be returning and for how long.

Yeah, Rodgers can blame himself as much as anyone for not having Davante around.

I... think... Tampa is the only game I've gotten wrong this week.

Of course I have my 16 point game tonight

Indeed, you and Patrick were the sole pickers of DC this week. Impressive

I'd have been just fine being wrong about that one.

Unofficial, until Tog confirms the scores: We have now three clearly separated groups:
Wolfy333, PtMcmahon, Patrick and Nitemare are all within 2 points, in the leading pack.
Tog and I are separated from them by around 20 points.
JazzNu, Omess and fastbackss are in turn around 50 points from the lead.
Omegadoom has stopped contesting.

These numbers are with the exclusion of the worst week.
Let me know if you spot any errors.

A good week, with 5 teams going over 100.
PT and NEM were the sole Cleveland pickers, and PT scored a monster 127. He has now opened a clear gap at the top. The Nitemare moved clearly into 2nd.
I guess PT and Nitemare understood one simple fact: Great quarterbacks have at least one great receiver. And without Ja'marre, Burrow came down to earth.

Well okay. Clearly not a believer in Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd.
