Might be something to consider.

That's why the worst week thing is only for the regular season. Missing a playoff week might be good for you anyway, but it's a different decision mindset.

Flip side is that you can get yourself into better position as well if you get it right. I missed I think two weeks during the regular season, didn't even realize I could wind up competing for the final group, but because I was either the only one or one of two that had the Niners beating the Packers (there were a couple of others where I picked correctly too and valued highly), it kept me within shouting distance of the leaders even though it was unlikely I could win. But I had a respectable showing in the end when I was certain I'd be in the bottom 3 after missing two weeks during the regular season.

Here's the place to talk about what's going on with your picks and the NFL teams letting you down.

There was quite the gap between the highest and lowest scores with the crazy results in week 1. Patrick built himself a nice lead to start off, being 12 points ahead of Omegadoom, his nearest competitor.

Scoreboard

As I said, a good chance this will be the worst week for a few teams.

That will be the last time I will be in the lead

Nah, look at the rest of us. You are basically playing against The Jets and Houston, all the time

Another week of potential duds... two of my top 3 that have played so far lost (Baltimore and Cleveland.) Good thing the Rams didn't blow it like they nearly did!

The Baltimore and Cleveland scores really busted us. I was happy for the Dolphins, but the Browns are favorites and I really wanted them to win.
That WORST WEEK thing is going to be a factor pretty soon.

Ptmcmahon has taken the lead after week 2 (note that I'm not applying the worst week filter yet) after scoring 101 points. Wolfy333 also made it over the century mark. Scores were generally quite a bit higher than in the last week, and we did not have as wide a spread in scoring.

Scoreboard

The unofficial count, if we take into consideration "worst week out" rules:
Fastbackss 82
JazzNu 67
NE Nitemare 91
Omegadoom 93
Omess 87
Patrick 86
Ponchi101 79
PtMcmahon 101
Togtdyalttai 87
Wolfy333 100

This takes out everybody's worst week.

Am I the only one seeing only week one scores on the scoreboard?

No

Sorry about that. The scores should be up now.

I presumed it was me since Ponchi posted an update involving week 2!
