With a safe bet on the Feature Game and being the only player to nail the bonus on the Question 5 pick 'em, Biggie solidifies his spot atop the mountain!  With only 2 weeks left in the regular season, the time is ripe for players to set themselves up for that playoff run!  What shake-ups will Week 16 bring?

 

########## WEEK 15 RESULTS ##########

 

Feature Game: Buffalo Bills (+2.5) at Pittsburgh Steelers
The Bills beat the Steelers by a score of 19.5(17+2.5)-10, winning on the field and in the MGT.

 

QUESTIONS

1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Bills TD, Bills FG, Bills safety, Steelers TD, Steelers FG, Steelers safety, or other? ($2,500 for the correct call)
Allen kept the ball and ran in from 1 yard out behind his left guard for a touchdown and the first score of this game.  Calls on a Buffalo TD get it.

 

2) Which team in the feature game will be the most heavily penalized in terms of YARDAGE? ($2,000 for the correct team)
Buffalo got flagged 8 times for 70 yards, with Pittsburgh only catching 6 for 30.  Guess on the Bills get this one.

 

3) Name any two running backs that will BOTH rush for over 100 yards this week. ($2,500 for two correct players)
Drake, Mixon, Carson, Pollard, Chubb, Sanders, Elliott, Barkley, and Hyde all went for over 100 yards rushing this week.  Keyser_Soze was the only player to call two of these names.

 

4) How many yards does Aaron Rodgers throw for against the Bears this week? Under 50, 51-99, 100-149, 150-199, 200-249, 250-299, or 300+ ($2,500 for the right guess)
Aaron Rodgers threw for 203 yards in this NFC rivalry game.  Picks on 200-249 win. AbsolutSurgen was the only player to get this one right.

 

5) Call the winners:
Tampa Bay at Detroit
Houston at Tennessee
Cleveland at Arizona
($2,000 for EACH correct named game winner, $4,000 bonus if you call all 3 correctly)
Only Biggie called all 3 games correctly to earn the bonus!

 

6) How many teams in Week 15 will only put up a single digit score? ($2,500 for the right number)
The Broncos and the Colts were the only team who could muster at least 10 points in Week 15.  2 is the call. Slug and thewhyteboar were the only players to guess this one.

 

7) Seattle at Carolina: Will the longest touchdown scored in this game be over or under 50 yards? ($2,000 for the right call)
Under is the call as this entire game was scored in the Red Zone, with the longest TD being from 19 yards out.

 

8) Name the player who will rush for the most yards AND the player that will have the most receiving yards in week fifteen. ($9,000 for each player named correctly, $18,000 bonus if both names are called)
Kenyan Drake led all rushers with 137 on the ground while Travis Kelce tracked down 142 yards through the air to lead all pass catchers. Nobody called either player.
