do you actually follow the NFL?

haha, not intended as a needle.

I just saw the location and that coupled with the fact that I don't follow it at all and still enjoy playing this.

I think that if I wanted it to be a needle then I'd say something along the lines of:

"Do you even NFL bro?"

Born and raised in America. Finished in the top 10 last season (or was it 2015?)

It was 2014.

2013 - T-21st place out of 51
2014 - 9th place out of 70
2015 - 13th place out of 86
2016 - 96th place out of 97

WHO IS PRESENT? REVEAL TIME!

can we not and say we did?

Plenty of Americans aren’t NFL fans

Alright, time for my climb back to the top to begin.

The 1,000-yard rusher.

After 7 players did it in 2015, and 12 accomplished the feat last year, 9 men ran for 1K in 2017. Is your pick 1 of the 9?

Emmitt Smith did it 11 times, while Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, and Curtis Martin each reached the milestone 10 times. And word is that a previous 1K rusher is contemplating a return to the game:



So join me today, as our end-of-season group rolls along. Let's see whose rushers reached 4 digits, whose picks absolutely 100% did not get there, and whose lost time looking for the real killers.

THIS IS THE QUESTION 18 REVEAL!

The slaughter begins. Got most of the remaining questions wrong.

.

As indicated, I am wrong again today, taking another player that got injured during the season.

After topping 1K in 2016, this former Northern Iowa Panther was lost for the season in Week 1.



JMurder3 can verify that I took Arizona RB David Johnson as my pick for Question 18.

I think I picked Johnson too

Today, we have 35 correct entrants, and 60 incorrects.

The 60 incorrects took 15 different RB's. The wrong answers will be revealed in order of their rushing yardage total from 2017, going from the lowest total (23), to the highest (983).

The 15 incorrects will be spread across 3 posts; 5 incorrect answers per post.

INCORRECT SCORING
This question's SHEEP is Arizona RB David Johnson (15).

SHEEP score of 15 (DJ) + 7 different correct answers = 22

Myself and the other 59 bad guessers each get 22 points as our Question 18 score.

I'm going to go ahead & not open up the document & assume you aren't lying about an incorrect answer

INCORRECTS 1-5
