Let's hope I YOLOed the Raiders again.

WHO'S HERE?

IT'S TIME FOR 2016'S FINAL REVEAL!

i'm here and expecting to have the most popular correct answer.

We're back to a team-related question today. And it's all about that 'p' word again.

But not practice:


And not this property:


IT'S THE PLAYOFFS!


The NFL regular season ends in 6 days. But who made the tournament with a week to spare? And who failed by picking teams that failed at their season?

Let's see which entrants chose teams that reached right out and grabbed.....the postseason.

THIS IS THE WEEK 16 REVEAL!

.

After taking Green Bay's QB last week (correctly), I went with the whole team this week (incorrectly).

They haven't lost since Week 11, and had 2016's easiest schedule, but they still haven't nailed down a playoff spot.



Rawlz can verify that I took the Green Bay Packers as my answer to the Week 16 question.

Tonight, we have 33 correct entrants, and 64 incorrects.

The 64 wrong answerers (including me) took 11 different teams. The teams will be revealed in the order of when they were eliminated from playoff contention, starting with the earliest (Week 11), and finishing with the 2 teams that could still make or miss the postseason.

This week's worst answer was provided by trollface.

This team was 0-11 through 11 weeks, and was the first eliminated from the playoff chase this year. Sure, they won on Saturday, but for who? For what?

The 2008 Lions will remain alone in infamy for now, after a Week 16 win by.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - The Cleveland Browns (eliminated in Week 11)

Not far behind Cleveland was GusJohnsonGOAT's answer.

This team lost Week 13's final game. They were blown out 41-10 at home, with little resistance or pushback.

We saw more of that on Saturday, as they lost 41-3.

Our next wrong answer is.....

INCORRECT ANSWER - The New York Jets (eliminated in Week 13)

Myself and the other 63 incorrects will get our scores at question's end.

ON WITH THE CORRECT ANSWERS.....

Oh is this gonna be another sheep is incorrect question?

As of the end of Week 16, 10 of the NFL's 12 playoff spots have been decided (including all 6 in the AFC).

The two left are the NFC North (either GB or DET), and an NFC wildcard spot (will be GB, DET, WAS, or TB).

Of the 10 potential correct answers to this question, 8 were chosen by the entrants.

HERE ARE THE TWO TEAMS NOBODY CHOSE.....

Yes. GB was the SHEEP here with 21.

Our 2 unplayed aces last met in Week 3 of the 2013 season (meaning they'll face each other next year). There's one from each conference.

Our AFC ace broke an 8-year playoff drought this year, and have lost only once since Week 5. They shook off a 1-4 start (and really should have started 0-5 but for Cody Parkey), and are now being led by their backup (and better) QB.

The NFC ace last made the playoffs in 2012. Last year, they wasted a 5-0 start and finished 8-8. This year, they won 4 of their first 5, and they'll host New Orleans on Sunday, in the final regular season game to be played in their current stadium.

Our 2 unplayed aces are.....

UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
The Atlanta Falcons
Clinched playoff berth & NFC South title in Week 16


UNPLAYED ACE - CORRECT ANSWER NOT GUESSED
The Miami Dolphins
Clinched AFC wildcard berth in Week 16

The SHEEP this week is worth 9 points.

2016 marks this team's fifth straight trip to the postseason, and they have their division crown back as well. They've had some inconsistent performances offensively, but have clearly been the class of the NFC West this year.

But when you face the Cardinals, 49ers, and Rams six times a year, you should win your division 100% of the time.

Nope.

9 of you took.....

Seattle clinched the NFC West in Week 15, after a 24-3 win over the L.A. Rams.

One team is worth 8 points.

This team started 3-1 after knowing their starting QB would be sidelined for 25% of the season. They've won their last 6 games, and are undefeated on the road in 2016.

And for the seventh straight campaign, they've earned a first-round bye.

8 of you selected.....

New England clinched the AFC East and a first-round bye in Week 15, after a 16-3 win at Denver.

8. That's nice. I'll take 8. LOL Packers at 21 and WRONG.

Two teams are worth 4 points apiece.

Our first 4-pointer is going back to the playoffs for the third time in four years. They can still win their division, if both they and Denver win on Sunday.

Four of you went with.....

The Kansas City Chiefs

The Chiefs clinched at least an AFC wildcard berth yesterday, after a 33-10 win over Denver.

Our other 4-pointer also clinched yesterday. They've now won 6 straight, finding the end zone with :09 left last night to extend their winning streak.

And a year removed from earning a wildcard berth, they are going into the playoffs as division champs once again.

Nope, this answer was closer to an ace than the SHEEP. ReD and 3 other took.....

CORRECT ANSWER

The Pittsburgh Steelers
4 points

Pittsburgh wrapped up the AFC North last night, with a 31-27 win over Baltimore.

One team is worth 3 points.

This team's last postseason game was a blowout loss in SB XXXVII. And, just like that game 14 years ago, San Diego was the site where everything changed.

Reggie Nelson's pick ensured this team was going going back back to the playoffs. Good news for the 3 of you that selected.....

CORRECT ANSWER

The Oakland Raiders

Oakland clinched a playoff spot in Week 15, after a 19-16 win at San Diego.
