Recommended Posts

Last seeing the top of the leaderboard way back in Week 5, Keyser_Soze surges ahead to jump 2 spots and regain the lead with 2 weeks to go in the regular season!  They say having the hot hand at the end of December is the key to playoff success. Will that hold true?

 

########## WEEK 16 RESULTS ##########

 

Week 16 Feature Game: Las Vegas Raiders @ Pittsburgh Steelers (-2.5)
The Raiders fall to the Steelers by a score of 10-10.5(13-2.5).  Bets on Pittsburgh win.

 

QUESTIONS


1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Raiders TD, Raiders FG, Raiders safety, Steelers TD, Steelers FG, Steelers safety, or other? ($900 for the correct call)

Carr hits Hunter Renfrow on a 14 yard TD pass for the first, and their only, TD of the game.  Raiders TD is the call.

 

2) Which team will score LAST in the Feature Game? ($700 for the right team)
Picket to Pickens in the 4th quarter to end the game on Pittsburgh's only TD of the contest.

 

3) Yes or no: will any player be credited with 3 or more touchdowns in Week 16? Again, we're talking the guy holding the ball in the endzone. ($700 for a correct answer)
Cam Akers and Shane Zylstra both found the endzone three times.  The yesses get it. Keyser_Soze was the only player to get this one right.

 

4) Cold hands: Name any player that will fumble more than once this week. ($1,000 for a correct name)
Trace McSorely was the only player to put the ball on the ground more than once in Week 16.  Nobody called this one.

 

5) Call the winners:
Washington Commanders at San Francisco 49'ers
New Orleans Saints at Cleveland Browns
Philadelphia Eagles @ Dallas Cowboys
($700 for EACH correct named game winner, $1,800 bonus if you call all 3 correctly)
The Saints shocked everyone in the MGT with their win over Cleveland.  Nobody earned the bonus.

 

6) With 3 weeks left to play in the regular season, 6 teams have clinched a playoff spot already.  How many will have clinched after Week 16 is over? ($800 for the correct number)
3 more teams claimed a spot in the post-season in Week 16 for a total of 9 spots clinched. AbsolutSurgen and Keyser_Soze both got this one right.

 

7) Name a player who will have one of the top 3 longest runs of Week 16? ($1,000 for the correct call)
Ray-Ray McCloud, Derrick Henry and D'Onta Foreman had the three longest runs in Week 16.

 

8) Name the player who will rush for the most yards AND the player that will have the most receiving yards in week fourteen. ($3,000 for each player named correctly, $8,000 bonus if both names are called)
D'Onta Foreman took the rushing title in Week 16 with 165 yards while Jaylen Waddle hauled in 143 through the air to lead all receivers.  Nobody called either player.
