TILTED - it looks like our match up will hinge on the EAGLES over/under.
With 4.5 minutes left in the RAVENS game, 37 points scored gives me the under in that game. I am worried about the CHIEFS scoring a TD in garbage time to give the over to you. Ooops - RAVENS just got an INT with less than 4 to go...now I have to worry about the RAVENS scoring a TD in garbage time.
Too bad there isn't a mercy rule in the NFL.

I did a quick look, and showing puggymom has wrapped it up for the Wildcard round. Congrats! (if my numbers are right
-- please double check me)An Eagles and Over advances Tilted, clevalley, and Merlin99
An Eagles and Under advances retiredweaxman, clevalley, and Merlin99
A Packers and Over advances retiredweaxman, Wildcat97 (through tiebreaker rules), and Rael
Packers and Under advances retiredweaxman, clevalley, and Rael
It's feelin' like an "under" game.

Congratulations to everyone that advanced, and to retiredweaxman in particular.
Thanks again Rael for all your efforts.

Thank you to everyone, it was a lot of fun here as well (and wouldn't be a decent pool without everyone playing reliably every week through the whole season).
It makes it interesting instead of being a line-less plain old "who's gonna win" or "what will the last number of the score be" type of pool. With the spread, I think it's a lot more difficult and interestingly challenging. Because of that, the thought of trying to make it a little better was there.
So....onto the divisional round we go then.
Thanks, also ott. I always liked your model in this pool with the five pointer and all (to which I credit you getting going here - for probably years and years).Good job, Rael, you took this Pinto of a football pool and turned it into a Cadillac.

Thank you, and I appreciate the back-up on accuracy. There are a lot of numbers every week, so it really helps to have people like yourself looking at them to make sure.
