Woz Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Obviously, this will be easy for @CWood21 and @packerjmf, but the rest of you should be seriously screaming for the Packers to win tonight because you certainly aren't being very strategic with your selections.

I'll leave my "strategic" picks for weeks 16 and 17 if I need to go that route. I also think the Browns beat the Lions in week 10, but not enough to pick them.

Yes, I'll be releasing the updated rules either tonight after MNF is over or tomorrow. You say that like the tiebreaker isn't looming large right now with only nine competitors left.

Those are the tiebreaker standings. It's an aggregate of the wins and losses of all of the teams you have selected so far. If you pick all super favorites (Philly, New England, Pittsburgh, etc.), you're going to drop down that list. Lowest aggregate record wins the first tiebreaker. So heading into last week, you were in the middle of the pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiei7 Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I go strategic from the beginning every year. This is the first year it has worked out. I'm eventually going to take a chance on NYG so I can pick Philly without it hurting me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You say that like the tiebreaker isn't looming large right now with only nine competitors left. To this point the tiebreaker really has not enter my thinking when making picks. It strikes me that it may be time to find a better balance between both the likelihood of winning and the record of the team picked. However, it does create a larger "zone of danger". The yin and yang of it all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
