I've been very hit & miss this season. Hence my 11th place standing. Except for last year (I think) I've always sucked at confidence point placement. That's been borne out again this season.
That's what I like about the confidence, it's not just the games, but your ability to adjust to how you think
Example : You and Pete have the same record, and Pete is drumming you in points. If you see @PetePierson in NeverNeverLand, let him know I said Hey
I noticed that too. Part of the issue is when I start falling behind, I try to make up for it by applying higher confidence points to underdogs. The thinking behind that is that if I hit on the underdogs, I'll get more points because most everyone else will have picked the favorite in those games. Apparently, I need to rethink that strategy.

Looks like I've jumped up two spots in the rankings. Not bad for missing the first two weeks.

5 points separate @acmillis and @IronDog for the yearly win and we have the playoffs left.

You're right .. It's not been this close .. picking this week is difficult since some teams are sitting starters, etc ..

Last week of the NFL was a pretty incredible rocky rough road
Scat Pack won the week (by 10).
The Yearly totals are pretty interesting and the playoffs will be interesting. @wmgravytrain Has a decent 17 point lead, and then it breaks down to what happens for 2nd, 3rd, 4th.
Hold on fella's ... gonna be fun
1 wmgravytrain 1489 172-86
2 Rocket City 1472 169-89
3 acmillis 1472 162-96
4 Scat Pack 1427 159-99
5 Crocaneers 1424 165-93
6 Mooz-zooM 1421 165-93

Will this really happen? Three years in a row?
I need to start picking against the spread in a state that allows sport gambling…

I've jumped to #10 after starting in last because I came in two weeks late. If I can make it into the top half of the group come the end of all this, it was a successful season.

Or we all suck ... but either way, I remember when you jumped in, and you've pulled your own ..
This weekend should settle the change ..

Did acmillis not apply points???
If I win this and so does Cinci, it’ll come with an asterisk…

I thought I did. I was trying to guess who you picked...and pick the opposite just so I'd have a chance. Looks like I guessed right...and wrong if that makes sense.
