The 50 incorrects will get their scores at question's end.

ON WITH THE CORRECT ANSWERS.....

zomg a correct!

On one hand, I think that legend and others who have advocated for following and sweating your picks have convinced me that it's the better way of playing this game. On the other hand, I would have submitted to despair and given up sweating them by now this season anyway.

There were 14 TD's scored on Thursday; 2 in the early game, 7 in the middle one, and 5 in the nightcap.

One player scored 3 TD's, and 2 others scored 2 apiece. 7 other players scored 1 each.

Of the 10 TD scorers, 7 were chosen by the entrants.

HERE ARE THE THREE NAMES NOBODY WENT WITH.....

So this is what a winning streak feels like

Of our unplayed aces, 1 is a QB, 1 is a veteran WR, and the third is a backup RB thrust up the depth chart due to an injury. Had you gone with any of these before the year started, you certainly would have deserved an ace.

The 3 unplayed aces are below.....

UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
Minnesota RB Matt Asiata
1 TD, 1st Quarter Week 12 (Vikings-Lions)


UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
Detroit WR Anquan Boldin
1 TD, 1st Quarter Week 12 (Vikings-Lions)


UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
Dallas QB Rayne 'Dak' Prescott
1 TD, 4th Quarter Week 12 (Redskins-Cowboys)

Somebody aced with Terrance Williams.

For the second straight week, the SHEEP today is worth 13 points.

Our SHEEP became correct during the first quarter of Thursday's nightcap. He plays for Pittsburgh and his last name starts with a 'B'.

Is it Bell or Brown?



Our last perfect game lives on! Prip and 12 others selected.....

Brown scored three times on Thursday, catching TD passes of 25, 33, and 22 yards from Ben Roethlisberger.

* - congrats to Priptonite! 12 straight correct answers to begin the game!

One more and he ties the record set by Caldarooni last season.

zomg not a sheep!!!

So if 13 of you took Antonio Brown, how many took Bell?

11 of you.

This Pittsburgh RB is worth 11 points.....

It's the other 2-TD scorer from Thursday.
