Well, despite that temptation I’m gonna do it anyways! (Assuming it’s allowed, of course.)
I’ll use a COFP:
Week 15;Eagles@Seahawks;Seahawks 
Eagles
(And now I’ll wait for A695814 to do the opposite move, thus resulting in me snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.)

Congratulations to @UltimateAnyone on securing the victory even if he did fumble at the goalline. The prize this week is “Mob Insurance”.
Frankie "The Actuarial Ace" Lombardi
Nice Little Lead You Got There…It Would Be A Shame If Something Were To [ahem] Happen To It : If you win this award you’ll be able to insure that all of the teams you picked for the week you declare do not blow a seven or more point lead that they had at the end of the 3rd quarter.
The default will be to apply it to next week’s picks - i.e., week 16. Your other options are [checks notes] 17 or 18.
You, along with A695814 & @Ezekial_Cumberland have won a COFP. @redearedslider has secured the VALSA.
This week…
@UltimateAnyone used a COFP to change his Seahawks pick to the Eagles. 
A695814 used his Numbers’ Nudge seven points to add to his Colts over Steelers pick. The Colts won without it. 
@OutdoormanNowActuary & @Kid_Rock used a COFP to change their Patriots pick to the Chiefs 
@PatientZombie used a COFP & VALSA to change his Panthers pick to the Falcons & his Jets pick to the Dolphins.
@Funemployed’s CYOA-The Arbitrary Award has finally paid off - his Bears pick was changed to the Browns.

I believe I got 3 COFP right so I get this early bird award? If so can I change week 17 from Bengals to Chiefs?

A belated “You’re Welcome!!” to all the Seahawk fans out there.
I will follow the default advice and actively apply the award to Week 16, and hope that it adds a little holiday magic to my picks.

Think I’m going to use my last available COFP to change Chargers to the Bills in Week 16. I’m also going to put $20 on LAC and see if I can use all of my bad luck to get those two a tie.

Affirmative! Thank you for paying attention.

Not advice…just Default. As in, if it doesn’t go right, de fault still lies with you.

Noted & if you get this one correct, then you’ll earn the UA’s Early Bird Award of Continued Excellence and another COFP.
I have no idea what you’re talking about, but good luck.
My last COFP: Plz change LAC to BUF week 16

I think I have one COFP left
I have two peas in a pod, that need to be put in proper order
so I will pack the Panther, and advance the Pack

That makes the fourth “Change Panthers to [the other team]”-COFP for you this year. I’m sensing some ragrets, but the change has been noted.
Yes, that was your last COFP…unless you win some more.
Time to disappoint/elate another fan base:
I’ll use a COFP: Chargers Bills
