"Picking a two-win team on Thanksgiving. Inshallah." [New England] --Gheen

They may still be a two-win team on Christmas.

"The Sunday after Thanksgiving is always one of the hardest weeks of the year." [Jacksonville] --Jaffa Jr
"Pretty sure half of the pool loses this week." [Tennessee] --Khouri

Both of those statements should really be true. And yet eight out of the top 10 picks were winners. One of the picks that lost...?

"But I don't want to be on the bandwagon." [Minnesota] --Sliken

Sometimes you don't pick the bandwagon. The bandwagon picks you. And then runs you over. That takes out a big chunk of people in Primetime, including another 17 undefeated. The list of leaders is dwindling.

Meanwhile, the list of the dead is growing. If you are one of the over 200 people eliminated from this year's pool, your chance for redemption is just around the corner. The Second Chance Pool starts in Week 15.
