Win it for Len! 
 

A bit of trivia: Len Dawson was the seventh son of a man who himself was a seventh son.

 

I've always liked the "Chiefs huddle." More trivia: The Browns used it for a while in the 80's. They're the only other team I can remember using it. I'm sure there were others, but I don't remember them.

Thanks @Kramerica Industriesfor running this as always, and congrats to @rams80for the championship win!

 

I picked the Chiefs to win the Super Bowl preseason and rode with them the whole playoff run for that, but for the sake of not getting a laugh/cry emoji notification on February 13th, and also because of each team's performances through the playoffs

@Kramerica Industries, for posterity sake, do you mind posting all of the past and current champions please?

 

I was actually thinking of doing that after next week, but since you asked I won't leave you waiting.

 

2015: @DG_ThenNowForever (175-91)

2016: @winters in buffalo (181-84)

2017: @Walter Sobchak (184-83)

2018: @Sport (175-90)

2019: @Maroon (177-89) 

2020: @~Bear (184-84)

2021: You (186-98)

2022: @rams80 (186-96 or 185-97)

 

This is, of course, for the eight* years I've run the competition. I don't know the pre-2015 winners, I don't have the notes, and I'm not interested in looking them up.

 

*How the :censored: has it been eight years already...?

I couldn’t edit my post. 🙄

 

I view your era as the current era. The years prior to you are like the pre-Super Bowl era Champions. They’re not Super Bowl winners specifically, but they’re still world champions.

Thanks for the congratulations everyone.  This was a really weird year; to be honest this season saw me see less NFL football on TV than I have in a long time because I'm down to watching the Rams on tape delay if they are on a national broadcast....and I decided a couple of years ago that I have earned the right to not watch them lose on tape delay.  That's not to say I didn't follow the league, just that I didn't see a whole lot of it on TV.  Also I want to say this year may have marked the first time I've won a week as well.

 

Anyway Super Bowl pick is Philadelphia.

You manage to balance agitation with just enough salient points to keep things interesting. Kind of a low-rent DG_Now.

Final standings:spacer.png

 

Playoff winner(s): @RyanMcD29 and @~Bear with the best records for the postseason at 11-2

 

League winner: @rams80 finishing up at 185-97. Silver medal - @oldschoolvikings at 183-99. Bronze medals - @RyanMcD29 and myself at 181-101.

 

Eight years of doing this. Hard to believe. 2015 doesn't feel that far in the past but here we are. I expect year 9 to begin on Labor Day, as is my unofficial tradition. See you guys then.

 

Thanks for playing everybody.
