That means Natsinpwc needs to win or tie before the Super Bowl, since he doesn't have enough picks left to get that far. But Dallas plays at Green Bay, leaving Nathan with only 2 picks left too. imref can make it to the Super Bowl... but must pick correctly!

We could have an outright winner, or another flushed.

I basically was forced to pick Dallas since I only have them and Seattle left.
I still want them to lose.

You should have picked Seattle. You would then be playing for a TIE next week. Nathan and imref can both be flushed next week, if they don't pick a winner. You did come close to winning it all, if Dallas had hung onto that last pass.

I might as well take Seattle then.

Good luck!

that of course depends on the definition of a "catch"

I found a good rule detail for a Survivor contest such as this. (We started a second edition in Week 12, and were likely to go deep into the playoffs):
(a) An entry that survives a round but has no picks left is deemed to have survived further than an entry that does not survive that round
(b) An entry whose pick loses in a round is deemed to have survived further than an entry that had no picks left at the beginning of that same round.

(b) contradicts what I posted earlier, but makes sense. If imref picks correctly this week, he wins, since Nathan cannot make a pick at all for the Super Bowl.

imref wins :bow:
You're right.  If the Colts win, Nathan is flushed for picking New England. If New England wins, imref can pick them next week, while Nathan is out of picks.

Winner, score, over/under   ....  MVP or some such thing can be the tie breaker.
