Our leader falls hard, dropping from his lofty seat atop the leaderboard and allowing Kal-El814 to slide back into first place!  Lucking out in a week where he missed his entry, can the Last Son of Krypton hang on for 3 more weeks?

 

########## Wild Card Weekend Results ##########

 

Feature Game: Pittsburgh Steelers (+10.5) @ Buffalo Bills
The Steelers got hammered by the Bills on a cold day in Buffalo, by a score of 27.5(17+10.5)-31.  The mafia goes home happy and bets on the Bills win.

 

QUESTIONS

 

1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Steelers TD, Steelers FG, Steelers safety, Bills TD, Bills FG, Bills safety, or other? ($2,500 for the correct call)
Buffalo rattled off 3 touchdowns before the Steelers even found the endzone, the first coming halfway through the 1st quarter on a 9 yard Allen-to-Knox connection.  Bills TD is the call.

 

2) Which team in the Feature Game will have the most total rushing yards? ($2,000 for the right team)
Buffalo put up 179 yards rushing to Pittsburgh's 106.
 
3) What will be the highest scoring game of Wild Card Weekend? ($2,000 for the right game)
The Packers and Cowboys put up a combined 80 points as Green Bay sends Dallas home for the rest of the post-season.  Keyser_Soze was the only player to call this one.
 
4) What will be the lowest scoring game of Wild Card Weekend? ($2,000 for the correct game)
In what came as a slight surprise to many, the Dolphins and Chiefs had the lowest total of the round, putting up a combined 33 points on a freezing Kansas City day.
 

5) Call the winners:
Cleveland at Houston
LA Rams at Detroit
Philadelphia at Tampa Bay
($1,500 for each correctly named winner, $3,000 bonus if you hit all 3)

I'll pick later but kal has this wrapped. 

Haha, every time you say someone has it in the bag the leader board gets shuffled. I'm beginning to think it's part of your strategy. :P
