Broncos win, eliminating Schnuff. Sorry Schnuff!!

9 players left out of 28. Let's see who gets eliminated in game 2: San Francisco vs. Seattle!

NOTHING to do with the thread but every August my old man and I pick the Super Bowl teams. Most years the two teams I pick don't even make the playoffs. This year I took Denver and S.F.. Half way there. XD

Good job!

I expect SF to win, but we'll see, should be a close game.

Seattle wins. 6 out of 28 players left for the final week. We'll definitely need Superbowl tiebreakers. I'll let you guys know soon.

OK, 6 players are left so we'll probably need some tiebreakers.

I think the tiebreakers should be fair for those of you that don't necessarily know the game that well, so most of the following questions are 50/50 type questions.

Each of you must fill out all of these questions to qualify for the prize.

Superbowl XLVII features the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks. It will be played on neutral ground in the chilly air of MetLife stadium in New York/New Jersey on Sunday, February 2nd at 6:30 U.S. eastern time. Denver is a very slight favorite, they are favored by just 2 points.

__________________________________________________________________________________________


The first question is: who will win - the Denver Broncos or the Seattle Seahawks? You must get this question right to qualify for the tiebreakers.

Tiebreakers:

1. Will the coin flip be heads or tails?

2. Which team will receive the ball first?

3. Which team will be ahead at the end of the 1st quarter? ("It will be tied" is also a valid answer)

4. Which team will be ahead at the end of the 2nd quarter? ("It will be tied" is also a valid answer)

5. Which team will be ahead at the end of the 3rd quarter? (("It will be tied" is also a valid answer)

6. Combined, the two teams are expected to score a total of 48 points. Will they score more or less than that? (You can guess 48 exactly, but that's less likely)

7. Which team will score a touchdown first? ("No one will score a touchdown" is a valid answer, but very unlikely!)

8. Which team will score a field goal first? ("No one will score a field goal" is a valid answer, but very unlikely!)

9. This will be the first time that the Superbowl will be played outdoors in a cold weather location. Will it snow more than 1 inch in New York/New Jersey that day?


Ultimate tiebreaker. If two or more players are still tied after all these tiebreakers, this will settle it once and for all:

10. The two teams combined are expected to score 48 points. Guess the total number of points scored in the game? The closer you are to the number, the better.

Yeah rule 6... that was for if no one actually survived to pick the Superbowl winner.

Sorry for the confusion but that was only for if no one won...

Rule 4 was for this scenario, where more than 1 person will win:

4. If anyone survives each week AND picks the Superbowl winner in the final week, that person will win! There will be tiebreaker questions for the Superbowl to ensure that only 1 person wins.
You can refer to it on the original post, it's been there the whole time. Again sorry for any confusion.

You want clueless? You got it! I got into this purely for the fun of it anyway, so here's some off-the-cuff predictions. For starters, I'm sticking with the Seahawks for this one. Again, this is clueless at work here :P

As to the tiebreakers, let's see now

If I'm quoting you, it means you didn't make your pick and do the tiebreakers. It's been a week since the last game. I will allow you up to 48 hours to make your pick and fill in the tiebreakers. If anyone doesn't have their pick/tiebreakers in by then, they will be disqualified.
