Topic	NFL Ladder Contest - Week 5
DpObliVion 10/04/17 7:29:07 PM #1:	Okay, we got more than one person to clear Level 3 last week. Also, pretty much everyone got off of Level 2, so that's good too. 5 was the bonus answer last week. Both my putting up of the Ladder Contest and my fantasy team would really appreciate it if these QBs would just be healthy and confirmed to play this week. A few ground rules: -Please say which level you are on when you post your pick. In most cases it will probably be obvious, but this makes it easier for me to record the picks. -The deadline to make a pick is at the start of the second set of games on Sunday afternoon (4:25 PM ET). That means no SNF/MNF picks after most all the games have started or finished. You cannot pick a game that has already started. -The deadline to answer the bonus question is at the start of games on Sunday (1 PM ET). -Please post the spreads with your picks, it makes it much easier for me. -I get my spreads from an online site providing lines from several sources, both in Vegas and out. Although these sources may continue to change their lines throughout the week, the ones I post in the topic are frozen and final for our purposes. Explanation of Levels: Level 1: Pick a winner. Simply pick one team to win their game. If they win, you go on to level 2. Level 2: Pick an Underdog to win. You must pick a team that is an underdog to win their game. Underdogs will always be the team listed second. Level 3: 2 Games with Spread. Using the spreads I provide, pick 2 games. You must get both correct to move on. Spreads work by giving (-) or getting (+) points. The team that is the favorite to win "gives" points to the underdog. If you choose the favorite to win, they must still win after "giving" those points to the underdog. If you choose the underdog, you would be correct if they win the game after "getting" those points. For example, if a game says "Giants (-2.5) vs. Cowboys," if you pick the Giants, they must actually win the game by at least three points; if you pick the Cowboys, you would win if they actually won the game or lost by two points or less. Level 4: 30+ or 10-: Pick one team to score 30 or more points, OR pick one team to score 10 or less points. You must clearly choose either 30+ or 10-. If you pick a team to score 30+, but they score 10-, you do not advance. Schedule: (home team in CAPS, favorites on the left) Thursday, October 5th New England (-5.5) at TAMPA BAY Sunday, October 8th NY GIANTS (-3.5) vs LA Chargers CINCINNATI (-2.5) vs Buffalo CLEVELAND (-0.5) vs NY Jets PITTSBURGH (-8.5) vs Jacksonville Tennessee at MIAMI [no spread yet, check back later in the topic] INDIANAPOLIS (-1.5) vs San Francisco PHILADELPHIA (-6.5) vs Arizona DETROIT (-2.5) vs Carolina LA RAMS (-1.5) vs Seattle OAKLAND (-2.5) vs Baltimore DALLAS (-2.5) vs Green Bay Kansas City (-1.5) at HOUSTON Monday, October 9th Minnesota at CHICAGO [no spread yet, check back later in the topic] Bonus Question: Pick a running back to score a touchdown of any kind this week. --- LGM <cite>DpObliVion posted [p:887821351] in NFL Ladder...
