Tiebreakers are open. Be sure to check out and understand the rules. Naye moves up to Level 8, but with still no bonus points, there's still opportunity for others. The bonus last week was 5, and the Giants are still an embarrassment.
Oh, and QB ranking is back. Mwahaha. (Rules moved to second post) 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. Level 5: Pleaser: Pick one team to win using the spread, but with the pleaser, you lose 6 points on the spread. In other words, add six points in whichever direction makes it harder to win. For example, a (-2.5) spread becomes (-8.5), a (+3.5) becomes a (-2.5) spread, etc. Level 6: QB, RB, WR: Pick 1 player to throw a touchdown pass, 1 player to rush for a touchdown, and 1 player to catch a touchdown pass. They must all be from different teams, and must also combine for at least 4 touchdowns in their respective positions. Typically you will be picking a QB, RB, and WR, but you may pick players from other positions to fill those roles (i.e. a TE or RB to get a receiving touchdown). You must make it clear what role you are picking the players for if it is not the standard QB/RB/WR or QB/RB/TE. If the player gets a touchdown in a different way (i.e. your rusher getting a receiving touchdown), it does not count. Level 7: 3 Over/Unders: I will now provide over/unders for each game. This number relates to the final score. You must choose 3 of the games and decide whether the final score will be OVER the number I provided or UNDER the number I provided. You must get all 3 of these correct to advance. Level 8: 5 Game Teaser: This is the opposite of level 5. Instead of losing 6 points on each spread, you actually gain 6 points on each spread. But you have to get all 5 games right to move on. So a team favored by 9.5 will now only have to win by 3.5, a team that is getting 2.5 points will now be getting 8.5 points. Level 9: Rank 'Em: Pick starting quarterbacks and rank them in order of passing yards they will have this week, from most to least. You must get the entire order correct. TWO CHOICES: You may rank any four quarterbacks, OR three quarterbacks but their team must win the game. All selected quarterbacks must start their game. You must pick all four at once, you cannot make a partial pick to complete later. --- LGM ... Copied to Clipboard!

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. Tiebreakers: The bonus points that you have accumulated throughout the season will be used to earn tiebreaker points. Each bonus point gives you one attempt at a level that you have previously passed during this season. If correct, you get points added to your tiebreaker score equal to the number of the level. You may use as many as you want during a week or save them for a future week, but you can only attempt each level once per week, and you must have already passed that stage to attempt it. Each bonus point can only be used once. After Week 17, if there is a tie on the highest-reached level, the person with the highest tiebreaker score will be crowned champion. . Schedule: (home team in CAPS, favorites on the left) Thursday, December 7th New Orleans (-0.5) at ATLANTA [51.5] Sunday, December 10th CINCINNATI (-6.5) vs Chicago [38.5] KANSAS CITY (-3.5) vs Oakland [47.5] Minnesota (-2.5) at CAROLINA [41.5] Green Bay (-3.5) at CLEVELAND [40.5] HOUSTON (-2.5) vs San Francisco [43.5] Dallas (-4.5) at NY GIANTS [41.5] TAMPA BAY vs Detroit **spread not available yet, please check back later** BUFFALO vs Indianapolis **spread not available yet, please check back later** LA CHARGERS (-6.5) vs WASHINGTON [46.5] NY Jets (-0.5) at DENVER [41.5] Tennessee (-2.5) at ARIZONA [43.5] JACKSONVILLE (-2.5) vs Seattle [39.5] LA RAMS (-2.5) vs Philadelphia [48.5] PITTSBURGH (-5.5) vs Baltimore [43.5] Monday, December 11th New England (-11.5) at MIAMI [47.5] Bonus Question: Rank 'Em: Pick any three starting quarterbacks and rank them in order of passing yards they will have this week, from most to least. You must get the entire order correct. All selected quarterbacks must start their game. You must pick all three at once, you cannot make a partial pick to complete later. --- LGM ...
