Our big winner this year was tron7 with 32 points! He narrowly beat out your humble scorekeeper this year to capture the Sportsfilter NFL 2010-2011 Playoffs Pick 'Em crown.

Our Costanza winner this year was NoMich, who while actually competitive with 23 points nevertheless had the lowest total among anyone who played all 4 weekends. We had some new players for the Superbowl round who did quite well this past week, most notably rcade who had the highest point total in the Superbowl round with 13!

Correct Picks, Superbowl Round

Here are the correct picks for this week, followed by the final standings. If you see any errors, be sure to let me know as this may affect the final standings:

Winner, point diff: Green Bay Packers, 6
Over/under: OVER
First score minute: 11
Last score type, 1st half: TD
Last score type: 2nd half: FG
Team longest punt return, distance: Pittsburgh, 2 (yes 2- double check my math, I hardly believed it myself)
Team most penalties, yards: GB, 67
Team most rushing yards, total: PIT, 126
Team most passing yards, total: GB 288
A special shout out here to the incredible tahoemoj, whose almost-perfect picks of PIT (135) and GB (286) for the above two lines were quite simply spooky!
Player most rushing yards, total: Mendenhall, 63
Player most receiving yards, total: Nelson, 140
Lowest TD jersey: 17 (Mike Wallace)
Scrabble over/under: Under (Nelson, 9 points)

Oh, and while a mere formality since the Great and Mighty Owlhouse clinched this two weeks ago, the final standings for the (Sportsfilter) confidence pool are here:

SpoFiteTOTAL
owlhouse82
MrFrisby72
hincandenza71
tron770
Howard_T63
bender54
tahoemoj54

As you can see, that rat bastard MrFrisby eked me out for second place. At least I finished ahead of tron7 in this one, though...


Also, the NoMich-managed offsite Confidence Pool final results can be found here, but since NoMich won so handily, I honestly figure the whole thing was rigged. ;)

Home field advantage ?

It was tempting to edit my comment afterwards.
