playoff contest (1 Viewer)

Here's what I almost switched to. Posting this will probably doom me and this will pan out:

Denver: Manning, Ball, Moreno, D Thomas, Decker, Tamme, Denver D

Seattle: Wilson, Lynch, Turbin, Baldwin, Tate, Seattle D

Green Ellis

Hawkins

Starks

Cobb

D Brown (Ind)

Colts D

Celek

B Brown (Phil)

Blount

Deangelo

Ugh, I really am starting to like that 2nd entry I didn't do.

Good luck everyone!

94.55 this week :( :wall: -QG
There weren't very many great performances this week. That may be good.
That's what I'm afraid of. I slammed this together at the last minute but stuck with Plan A - which is NOT this roster. Lesson learned - go with the Super Bowl you really think will happen as step 1 :(

Any idea what the cut line is?
102.2

Was wondering what all the scenarios of teams that went heavy on Broncos/Seahawks is or what number of players need to be alive to realistically have a shot.

 
Woot! I made it. Only 7 players left though so I don't I have a shot.

Manning

Ball

Welker

J Thomas

Prater

Lynch

Ha-shuke-ah

 
All i can say is wow. Made the cut this week by 1 point.

Have 14 den/sea players left.

Manning

ball

d. Thomas

welker

prater

den def

Wilson

lynch

harvin

tate

kearse

miller

sea kicker

sea def

 
Backing away from the ledge as the 92.55 (corrected) for the entry I did not enter would not have passed muster this week. Blount was so weird in this contest. His 0.6 killed off a number of contenders I bet.

Love the TY Hilton lottery. Guy must have been counting on a cut line in the teens.

Crazy, and from what I can find, looks like you have the best shot to win it all. Can't find anyone that has you covered. Just have to hope Decker and Moreno don't go crazy, well done.

 
Boy thought I was doing good making it in with 7. Hopes are dashed now. Wasted money on the damn eagles

Peyton Manning $35
Eric Decker $18
Wes Welker $12
Julius Thomas $16


Russell Wilson $27
Marshawn Lynch $16
Percy Harvin $9

I have been very lucky so far. The only improvement I could have made to make this a perfect entry would have been to take the 16 dollars I spent on J. Jones and R. Cobb and buy J. thoomas from devner. (As it turns out I would not have needed Jones or Cobb to advance past the first round).

 
How lucky is that. I needed poor games from Decker, Moreno and J. thomas plus big games from Seattle. I have not picked the correct two superbowl teams in 10 years I bet. I am just thankful I had enough gas to make the cuts by less than 2 points each week. made this possible.

 
Weird year.

I have not received any acknowledgement of winning this contest yet. How long does it normally take before footballguys reaches out to the winners?

I'm sure some of the Seattle teams that had little Denver exposure shut into the money. That said, it wasn't much money.

Prizes:

Prizes will be awarded as follows:

1st place: $1,000 + lifetime subscription

2nd place: $250 + lifetime subscription

3rd place: $200 + lifetime subscription

4th place: $100 + 2013 subscription

5th place: $75 + 2014 subscription

6th place: $50 + 2014 subscription

7th - 12th place: $30

Bottom line, even in one of the most lopsided Super Bowls in history, you better have 10 or more lineup up to play in the last game if you want to win.

 
is it happening this year?
Hi Soaring Eagle,

Yes, we're finishing the pricing on it and putting it together now. Seems like we always scramble at the end to get this ready. It'll be like what we did last year.

I'd hope to have it online and ready Wednesday morning. Hope you guys win it all!

J
:rolleyes: from last year, so Wednesday morning is likely again
OK...guess I'll check back Wednesday

 
Have any staff said whether this will actually be on this year? I haven't seen anything and couldn't find a link or reference to it in the playoff content. I'd really like to know so I can stop checking in if it's not on. Bueller?

 
Man they've really mixed things up this year with pricing. This is gonna use most of my brain cells that I was trying to save for DFS this week...

 
They really took into account who is expected to advance with the pricing. I'm not smart enough for this, but I'm sure it will all be much clearer at 2 am Saturday after a few cold beers.

you've done well predicting games this year. Should be easy for you ;)

 
Think I'm done with the following number of players going if it plays out the way I predict:

Wildcard - 7

Divisional - 13

Conference - 8

Super Bowl - 14

:scared:

 
i'm confused, first time playoff entrant here.... what is the starting lineup? do you get points from everyone on your roster (I understand the 2 max per NFL team requirement)
