Looks like Stele, cube, BEPNewt, UpTo, iaintgotnopants and Torq.

I got knocked out by the Dolphins losing to the Jets.

There's more people that are still in it, they just didn't pick the Packers this week so their pick hasn't been shown yet.

Ah, gotcha. My apologies to those not-yet-losers!

And yet I'm last on the pickem. I need to figure out what this super power is and how to exploit it.

Explain it to me when you figure it out.

Work League had 18 people heading into Week 3. 9 people lost.

9 people heading into Week 4, and the bloodbath continues, 3 people went with Atl, 1 with NE. I survived with 3 others taking Seattle, while 1 more has KC tonight, and they're down at halftime...

Up until Friday I had the Bills, so much so I forgot I switched off the Bills and selected the Eagles.

I regret nothing.

I don't regret picking the Steelers against Bortles.

I regret picking the Giants.

Alright, week 6, this is where I won it last year. 5 of us still left his time though as opposed to 3.

I've been week by week picking after the first 2.

Surviving but I fear I will end up with much tougher choices soon.

When I look at the standings, it shows 5 of us with 5 correct picks, but has us with 4 points and an 89.9% percentage just like those that picked 4 out of 5 correctly.

I'm real tempted to switch my week 6 pick from the Texans to the Skins but I just can't root for the Skins. Well, unless they're playing Dallas or a team that needs to lose to get Philly into the playoffs.

Betting on the Redskins to win is always a losing proposition.

Looks like 4 of us are still 6 for 6.

Gawd, lose already so I can be the second round champion!

Thank you Tennessee for sucking, but not sucking more than my Browns.

Still 4 perfect going into the week. But it looks like Torq picked the Bills last night. Will the other 3 survive the weekend?

Doh!
For the first time since the start of the season, I went in and looked at my picks, and I actually switched from Cardinals over 49s to Bills over Jets. That will teach me to meddle!

I have no idea how it is Week 10 and I am still alive.

I haven't changed any of my picks since I set them before Week 1. I got knocked out Week 3 because I thought the Dolphins would beat the Jets. The Jets aren't tanking as bad as expected, so that's on me.

However, the real kicker here is I've been correct since, except for Week 9 when I picked the Giants over Rams. Wow was that ever wrong as the Rams won 51-17. Nuts.

Always bet against the Browns. Or Giants. Or 49ers

I just changed some picks around, and I know it's going to bite me in the ass. I should have left it like I set it in week 1.

I don't have the Patriots picked any week.

Me and you BEP, me and you...

Oh that's bullsh*t. I picked Jacksonville. Did it on my phone last week, it must not have saved.

I changed my pick off of Bengals over Browns to Carolina over Jets. I expect to pick up a loss this week. I just have a weird feeling about the Browns finally doing something.

I'm tempted to switch it to the Pats over Miami since I haven't taken the Pats all year. Or, my Iggles over the Bears this week because I have them in week 16 when they may not be starting their starters.

Oh, well, it's just for fun, right? No need to think about it too much.

-BEP

Did I just win because BEP forgot to put his pick in?

I still protest. I made that week 11 pick on my phone. Argh.

He picked the Patriots. The pick doesn't show until that teams game starts.

Yup. Changed my pick to the Pats like an idiot. 'Sway it goes!

Thank you Dolphins!
