    ๐Ÿˆ Week 16 Pickโ€™em Recap

    Week 16 was defined by one brutal landmine and a handful of steady, disciplined wins.
    With only five submissions in the pool, every game mattered โ€” and a single miss had the power to swing the entire leaderboard.
    While a few matchups played out exactly as expected, one unanimous miss instantly separated the field.

    The slate closed with a high-scoring Monday Night Football matchup that pushed the tiebreaker well above normal and locked in final placement.

    MNF Total: 75 points (49ers 48 โ€“ Colts 27).
    One of the highest tiebreakers of the season.

    ๐Ÿงฎ How Ties Are Broken

    1๏ธโƒฃ Tiebreaker Guess: Closest to the MNF total (75) ranks higher.

    2๏ธโƒฃ Earliest Submission: Used only if tiebreaker deltas are identical.

    With such a high-scoring MNF, even strong guesses were separated by wide margins.

    • ๐Ÿ’ฃ PIT over DET was the landmine of the week โ€” 0% correct and every card took a hit.
    • ๐Ÿšจ JAX over DEN also flipped the board, with only one correct pick.
    • ๐Ÿ’ฏ HOU over LAS and CHI over GB were unanimous and kept the field compressed.
    • ๐Ÿ“ˆ PHI, CIN, MIN, and SF rewarded discipline with strong hit rates.
    • โš–๏ธ Several games landed in the middle range, quietly separating top finishers.
    • ๐ŸŒ™ MNF: San Franciscoโ€™s 48-point outburst pushed the total to 75 and finalized the standings.
