The leaderboard tightens up, but doesn't change as BasemntDweller2 hangs on to his seat atop the mountain in a week with apparently the easiest Feature Game pick of the year as ever player hit it correctly!  With 4 weeks to go in the regular season plus a post-season left to play, it's still anyone's competition to win!

 

########## WEEK 13 RESULTS ##########
 

Week 13 Feature Game: Buffalo Bills (-2.5) at San Francisco 49'ers
The Bills easily cover the 2.5 points, winning by a score of 31.5(34-2.5)-24. Everyone got this correct!

 

QUESTIONS 

1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Bills TD, Bills FG, Bills safety, 49'ers TD, 49'ers FG, 49'ers safety, or other? ($1,000 for the correct call)
A quick no huddle pass for 3 yards into the end-zone to Brandon Aiyuk for the 49'ers are the first points of the Feature Game. thewhyteboar was the only player to guess this one.

 

2) How many total combined touchdowns will be scored in the Feature Game? ($1,000 for the correct call)
The Bills and Niners combined for 7 trips to the endzone. Nobody got this one right.

 

3) Which QB in Week 13 will have the highest number of pass attempts? ($2,000 for the correct player)
Ben Roethlisberger and Justin Herbert tied for the most pass attempts in Week 13, with 53 each. Nobody called either player.

 

4) Name ANY two teams that combine for under 30 total points. They do not have to be playing each other. ($1,000 a correct combo)

If you called some correct combination, you got it.  


5) Call the winners:
Detroit at Chicago
New England at L.A. Chargers
New Orleans at Atlanta
($1,000 for EACH correct named game winner, $2,000 bonus if you call all 3 correctly)
Only one player called Detroit.  Nobody called all 3 for the bonus.
 

6) Name any running back that will average 5 or more yards per carry with a minimum of 10 attempts. ($1,500 for the correct player)
9 backs made this criteria in Week 13: Chris Carson, Damien Harris, Alvin Kamara, Cordarrelle Patterson, Taysom Hill, John Taylor, Wayne Gallman, Aaron Jones, and Melvin Gordon III.  If you guessed one of these guys you got the cash.

 

7) Taking into account total distance traveled with the ball, name the team that will have the single longest play of Week 13. ($2,000 for the correct team)
In addition to having the coolest name, Gunner Olszewski gives us the longest play of Week 13, ultimately covering 110.8 yards on a 61 yard punt return. Guesses on New England win.  Nobody guessed the Pats.
 

8) Name the player who will rush for the most yards AND the player that will have the most receiving yards in week thirteen. ($5,000 for each player named correctly, $10,000 bonus if both names are called)
Wayne Gallman took the Week 13 rushing crown with 135 yards while a tight end takes the receiving title for the first time this year, with Darren Waller hauling in 200 yards.  Nobody called either player.
