I think we should all be proud, because being this explicitly bad is actually hard to do.

 

[Section15Box113]

It's actually worse than that. I messed up the calc for the future losses. We all actually have 5-6 future losses with NO out.

(Will revise above.)

Kutcher's Speed Limit would be 6-0 if the Bills had held on against the Texans. For most of the rest of us, including 1-5 yours truly, it's a bloodbath.

Sooo worth it!

 

[Soxy]

At least my Super Bowl teams are both still alive. If I can get that right two years in a row, I'll consider it a success.

 

[johnmd20]

I'll have picked one game correctly. That's impressive.

I think I need Ten to beat KC and then not have SF win it all in order to tie Kutcher’s Speed Limit.

 

[Section15Box113]

And with the Conference Championship matchups now set, here's where we stand. Kutcher's Speed Limit (who picked SF over KC) is still in the best shape at 6-2 along with BaseballJones (who went with the Ravens over SF).

The Seahawks loss makes it official: I'm dead last. And while there are three games left, I will finish 1-10, only picking Seattle over Philly correctly.

I kinda threw together my picks after sitting on them for a week and still went 1-10. still, it's fun to try!

 

[Section15Box113]

I think I need Ten to beat KC and then not have SF win it all in order to tie Kutcher’s Speed Limit.

That looks right. @Kutcher's Speed Limit has clinched a tie. You, @Mooch , and @bugman61 are the only ones who can catch Kutch. Here's the breakdown:

SF over KC = Kutcher
KC over SF = Kutcher

SF over TEN = Kutcher
TEN over SF = Kutcher & BaseballJones tie

GB over KC = Kutcher
KC over GB = Kutcher, Mooch, and bugman61 tie

TEN over GB = Kutcher & BaseballJones tie
GB over TEN = Kutcher & BaseballJones tie

I'm right there in the basement with you, @DeadlySplitter . But always love doing this each postseason. Better luck to us both next year...

Thank you for keeping track of all this. It's nice of you. And I am honored to have failed in the manner that you did. I'm in good company. Last place on the scoreboard but first place in my heart.

 

[Section15Box113]

And with the 49ers heading to the Super Bowl, it's official: no one can catch Kutch. Congrats, @Kutcher's Speed Limit !

Five entries nailed the SB matchup: @Kutcher's Speed Limit , @ElcaballitoMVP , @Grimace-HS , @BigSoxFan , and @Soxy Brown . Nice work, all.
