    Alright ya'll final week of the year! Let's have a good showing. Thanks to Finatic for starting this great idea. I appreciate ya'lls time to participate. This has been fun for me!

    Again, no Thursday night game this week... but also new... no Monday night game. Instead they gave us two Saturday games (??)

    Chiefs @ Broncos (Sat)
    Cowboys @ Eagles (Sat)
    WFT @ Giants
    Bengals @ Browns
    Steelers @ Ravens
    Packerts @ Lions
    Colts @ Jaguars
    Bears @ Vikings
    Titans @ Texans
    Saints @ Falcons
    Seahawks @ Cardinals
    Jets @ Bills
    Panthers @ Buccaneers
    Patriots @ Dolphins
    49ers @ Rams
    Chargers @ Raiders

    On a side note, do we want to continue this same format through the playoffs? I'll post week 17 results tonight after work.

    Did you skip the 49ers/Rams game on purpose?

    This week’s games are going to be very tricky to pick. Some teams will be resting starters, some are do or die, others may try to play the Cinderella upset.

    You're right on all counts. I'm going to pay close attention, and adjust my picks as needed. A few teams have already announced that they're benching key starters this week.

    The Phins salt the wound by losing at home to the Pats. Also, picking the playoffs would be fun -until we get to a Bucs-Pats Superbowl and then we'd need a 'Meteorite' option.

    Naw, we're going to show out this week and end the season on a high note. We've been good all year at home and I feel like this is a very big game for several front office and coaching positions that could soon be on the line. Nine and eight is a fantastic year given how we started, 8-9 while losing the last two has a very different feel.

    No shame in losing to the Titans in Tennessee in December, but no excuse for losing to the Pats at home!

    I'm at 11-4 coming into the SNF game, so it looks like I made my 65% goal that I set about a month ago.

    So, do we come up with final scores for the regular season and then start fresh in the playoffs? Or keep a running score through the playoffs?

    I'd say keep the regular season as its own thing, and start a new bracket for the playoffs.

    If we do that we need to pick scores for tie breakers or something I think. Or maybe straight up and then vs the spread as posted Friday or some such

    Pick the winners and the over/under for each game. If there is a tie, whoever has the closest point differential to zero wins.

    For example, you and I pick all the same games and we tie. I said the total points would be 28, you said it would be 45, the final score of that game is 17-10, I would win since I was only 1 point off.

    Use that method only in the event of an overall tie…and apply the o/u point differential of all the games.

    Pic may say no though…it would be a lot more leg work for him

    I prefer simple win/loss. I've no interest in guessing overs/unders etc.

    I'd prefer to provide a total for the regular season.
    Then for the playoffs we can keep just doing it week by week.
    Brackets are okay but one mistake and it's over.
    Simple like that too.

    Total data for the yr. Unlucky with the decisive win! I think we will continue on with this format for the playoffs. If someone wants to start an overall bracket, I would participate in that as well.

    The scores reset though for the playoffs, right? Because I think I can pick every single game right, with Lucky picking every single game wrong...and I'd still lose by 5 or 6 games, LOL.
