2022 GoActuary Kirk Cousins Stinks NFL Full Season Pick’em Contest

[Kid_Rock]

My question is whether I can really change Broncos to Jags and Pats to Jets. Both seem ridiculous to be banking on Jags and Jets. Ugh

[Kid_Rock]

It pains me that I picked my Seahawks to win 5 and Denver to win 11. Jets and Giants at 2 still seems reasonable though they have killed me.

[PatientZombie]

Arb, KR & I should all have the same number of games (W+L+T)

[3rookie]

@TheArbitrary

New strategy this year is killing me. Heading toward the basement fast.

We’re waiting for you!

It might be fixed now…

@Grizz

Steelers to Eagles

Noted.

[1695814]

@PatientZombie

Cards to Vikes

Noted.

[1695814]

@Vorian_Atreides

I reject the default

violently and vehemently

I would like to apply the award to my Week 12 Away picks.

And if my intern kept track correctly, I have 2 COFP to use.

NOTED!!!

with love & compassion

supplied & applied to Week 12 Away picks.

You have a quality intern. I’m jealous. Yours has correctly kept track of your COFPs.

[1695814]

@Mountainhawk

Please use one of my COFP to change my week 8 pick of the Patriots to the Jets.

Noted.

@Mountainhawk

(I think this leaves me with 1.)

Correct.

[1695814]

@Kid_Rock

My question is whether I can really change Broncos to Jags and Pats to Jets.

Well, you have five (count them: one, two, three, four, five!) unused COFPs to use as you wish, so YES YOU CAN!!!

@Kid_Rock

Both seem ridiculous to be banking on Jags and Jets. Ugh

DOIT.DOIT.DOIT.DOIT.DOIT…but only if you want to.

@1695814

quick eye test looks good

[OutdoormanNowActuary]

COFP: Packers to Bills

[PatientZombie]

actually did some math, that looks good too.

[1695814]

Communication and award-processing might be a little lacking this weekend as both my intern and I have been sent off for a diversity training retreat. However, they’ve carved out some personal/free-time late Sunday, so I should be able to catch up on any COFPs and give the SNF-update.

[1695814]

@OutdoormanNowActuary

Packers to Bills

Noted

[Kid_Rock]

Dodged 2 bullets and didn’t waste the COFPs

[1695814]

Going into SNF, here are this week’s winning (and losing) scenarios:
Packers, [Bengals, Browns] - @redearedslider; VALSA: @3rookie
Bills, Bengals - @Ezekial_Cumberland; VALSA: @3rookie
Bills, Browns - @UltimateAnyone; Runners up: @A695814, @Ezekial_Cumberland; VALSA: @3rookie

[Kid_Rock]

Week 9 Change Texans to Eagles

[1695814]

Noted

[1695814]

Apologies for the late posting, but the intern left work early before the TPS reports had even run, so stuff didn’t get done. Regardless, that’s what the SNF-update is for - so that you can play along at home.

Congratulations to @UltimateAnyone for winning Week 8 and its award, Choose Your Own Adventure Award

CYOA

If you win this award you get to choose one award from a selection of two non-negative awards and two higher-variance, possibly-negative awards:

• Jables’ Home Field Advantage
• Random Poster’s Lucky 7
• The Arbitrary Award - If you use this award you may flip your pick for all non-Divisional games for one team for the rest of the season.
• The Arbitrary’s Lucky 7 Award - If you use this award you will flip your picks for exactly seven games in a week of your choosing.

The default will be to use JHFA and add three points to all of your Away teams in Week 12. You may reject this default by declaring your intentions on how to use the award before kickoff of TNF.

Additionally, you, along with @Ezekial_Cumberland and that blockhead, A695814, have won the Change one future pick award: You may change one of your future picks. Use for any future week, but declare it before the kickoff of the game it affects. This award expires at the end of the season.

Evenmoreso, @3rookie, being in sole possession of last place this week, has won the VALSA (VA’s Lion’s Share Award) which gives him a limited-time-COFP which, if used, must be declared before TNF for a Week 9 game.

This week…

@Mountainhawk used a COFP to change her Patriots pick to the Jets.

@OutdoormanNowActuary used a COFP to change his Packers pick to the Bills
@PatientZombie used a COFP to change his Cardinals pick to the Vikings
@Grizz used a COFP to change his Steelers pick to the Eagles
