The 2019-20 Mock Gambling Thread - WEEK 11 - Keyser_Soze keeps his grip on the leaderboard!

Recommended Posts

With incredible staying power, Keyser_Soze holds the lead for 4 straight weeks!  His position is tenuous though, with the top half of the leaderboard all within a one week striking distance of knocking him down from his perch!

 

########## WEEK 10 RESULTS ##########

 

Feature Game - L.A. Chargers (-1.5) at Oakland Raiders
The Raiders go ahead with a last minute TD to beat the Bolts by a score of 22.5(24-1.5)-26. Something something always bet on black.

 

QUESTIONS

 

1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Chargers TD, Chargers FG, Chargers safety, Raiders TD, Raiders FG, Raiders safety, or other? ($1,500 for the correct call)
Carlson hit a 40 yard FG in the 1st quarter to kick off the scoring (Raiders FG).  Biggie was the only player to call this one.

 

2) Tiring out the defense: Which team in the Feature Game will have the greater time of possession? ($1,200 for the correct call)
The Chargers led in ToP, 34:10 to 25:50.

 

3) Who will score the first touchdown on Monday Night? (As always by score we mean the person holding the ball in the end-zone - $1,500 for the correct guess)
Garoppolo hit Kendrick Bourne for a 10 yard TD late in the 1st quarter for the first touchdown.  Nobody named Bourne.

 

4) Name the QB that gets sacked the most in Week 10. ($1,800 for the right name)
Drew Brees and Daniel Jones both ate turf 6 times in Week 10.  Guesses on either name get the cash. BasemntDweller2 was the only player who named one of these two QBs (Jones) to earn the cash for this question.

 

5) Call the winners:
Buffalo at Cleveland
NY Giants at NY Jets
Kansas City at Tennessee
($1,200 for EACH correct named game winner, $2,400 bonus if you call all 3 correctly)
Upset specials?  Not only did nobody get all 3 games right to earn the bonus, but more players didn't call any of the games correctly than in any other week.

 

6) How many touchdowns will be scored across the League this week on kick or punt returns? ($1,500 for the right number)
For the second week in a row there were zero return touchdowns.  Bets on none get it.

 

7) Nobody likes to see 'em, but they're still important.  Name the punter that will record the longest punt in Week 10. ($2,500 for the right name)
Michael Dickson hit a sick 68 yard punt to flip the field for Seattle and tally the week's longest punt.  Nobody called his name.

CORRECTION: Apparently I can't read because thewhyteboar actually did call Dickson!

 

8) Name the player who will rush for the most yards AND the player that will have the most receiving yards in week ten. ($4,000 for each player named correctly, $8,000 bonus if both names are called)
Derrick Henry rumbled along for 188 yards to lead all runners in Week 10, while Tyreek Hill caught 157 yards in passing to top the receivers.  Nobody called either player.
