laughedatbytime Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 What is it? Forgive my ignorance.Each week you pick games from 16 to 1 (or 13 to 1, 14 to 1, or 15 to 1) if there are byes, based on the confidence you have in each team winning, giving the most number of points to the team you feel most confident in winning. For example, if an NFC East team has an out of division game, you can be fairly confident that, short of playing the Raiders, you could give their opponents one of the highest numbers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treeduck Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Is it too late to join? I can jump in for week 2.No it's not too late, go ahead. You miss out on Week 1 points but it won't make that much difference with the way Week 1 went for some of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
