Sorry, I'm fighting off sleep to correct and update Week 3 and sleep is winning. I'll have it fully updated Tuesday after work. And I'll also edit this post to make it more proper. In the meantime, here's the link to the Week 4 Pick 'Em contest:

2023 TCDb Pro Football Pick 'Em - Week 4

No tie breaker?

D'OH! Thanks for catching this! I really should get more sleep when I do these, lol. Week 4's tiebreaker is now included in the contest link and is as follows:

For Week 4's tiebreaker, predict the grand total of rushing yards in all 16 games. For example, if you think 100 total rushing yards will occur in each game, then your prediction would be 1600 rushing yards. Closest guess wins the tiebreaker. You can be over or under. Due to my forgetting earlier to add a tiebreaker, the deadline to submit a tiebreaker prediction will be Saturday, September 30 at 11:59 pm Eastern/8:59 pm Pacific. The deadline to pick winning teams remains Thursday 8:15 ET.

As usual, tiebreaker predictions are to be posted in the contest link located in the first post above.

We have another very nice turnout for this week's contest (30 members!). Here's the contestant lineup for Week 4:

So half of us missed the tiebreaker added on.  Can we add that now or hope we don’t tie?

So yes, you can still add your tiebreakers for another 9.5 hours.

Thanks Dan for your assistance. It just occurred to me earlier this morning that if their is a tie, I should just award a prize to each member who is tied for most correct picks this week. I do have multiples of each prize so it wouldn't be a problem if tied members wanted the same prize. And then I realized I posted some of the members' tiebreaker guesses above which would influence others who had yet to post their tiebreaker guess--d'oh!

Bottom line here is that we'll just toss out this week's tiebreaker and I'll award prizes to all members who are tied for most correct picks. Sorry for the confusion.

If I did the math and the spreadsheet correctly, then big congratulations are in order for MotownMike and BuccaneersDen who both got an amazing 14 out of 16 correct picks! Here's the Week 4 contest scoreboard:

Both MotownMike and BuccaneersDen will get their choice of one of the prizes below:

• One 14-card pack of 1990 Pro Set (Series 2)
• One sealed 34-card pack of 1990 Topps Football
• One sealed 53-card pack of 1991 Fleer Football
• One sealed 28-card pack of 1991 Pacific Football
• One sealed 43-card cello pack of 1991 Topps Football
• One sealed 12-card pack of 1991 Upper Deck Football (High Series)

• One 22-card pack of 2023 Score Football
• One 55-card box set of 1993 Bicycle Rookies Playing Cards

Sorry for the delay in updating this. I'm in the midst of an 8-day stretch of no days off (worked the Chargers/Raiders game on Sunday, preparing for a Pink!/Pat Benatar concert on Thursday and a Rams/Eagles game on Sunday). Good luck to everyone!

Most impressive!  Both that two members picked 14 winners this week and that bbcardz somehow keeps this contest running every week with his busy and exciting work schedule at the stadium!  

I'm flattered! And I really do appreciate you guys catching my errors and reminding me of things I may have forgotten.

I woke up way too early this morning (I don't have to be at work until 1 pm today). Then I remembered I need to close the Week 4 posts to new predictions and take them off *hidden*. Original Week 4 predictions of all contestants are now open for viewing.
