Okay, I admit that I'm jumping the gun with this week 17 recap post. But the Jets are up 30-0 late in the 3rd, and the Bengals just went from 1st and 1o on the Jets 12 to 4th and 37 on the Jets 39. J.T. Freakin' O'Sullivan is under center right now, and Larry Johnson is taking most of the carries. This one is all but done - welcome to the playoffs Jets.
Ben of Outside the Boxscore, like the Jets, finished strong this week. Ben went 11-5 and won the week over a 10-6 GSNHOF. It may not seem like much, but Ben only won four weeks of this competition, so it's definitely a big, momentum building victory heading into our playoff predictions (Because oh yeah - there will be playoff predictions!) Ben's incorrect win picks this week were Jacksonville, Tampa Bay, Arizona, Washington, and Cincinnati. GSNHOF's incorrect win picks were Indianapolis, New Orleans, Tampa Bay, Jacksonville, Denver, and Philadelphia.
This post ends the regular season of both the NFL and our Prediction Battle, leaving the final standings at:
173-83 (67.6%) - Great Sports Name Hall Of Fame
152-104 (59.4%) - Outside The Boxscore (21 Games Back)
That may look bad, but the more important standings at this point are the following:
Playoff Standings
0-0 - Great Sports Name Hall of Fame
0-0 - Outside the Boxscore
We are, quite literally, starting over at 0. May the best predictor win!
