My chief statistician Melissa Hartmann was ever too gracious to point out this week that 88 percent of all of our “Beat ‘The Putz’” entrants managed to beat me “harder than a Gronk pile-drive.”
Well said, Melissa.
With that out of the way, I slogged my way to an 8-6 record. Linda Zielinski, of Westfield, on the other hand, went 13-1 to win a gift certificate to The Tavern Restaurant and a chance at our grand prize, a flat-screen television from Manny’s TV & Appliances.
While the Gronk-less Pats are off until Monday night, there are still some highly intriguing contests, such as Minnesota (10-2) at Carolina (8-4), Philadelphia (10-2) at the Los Angeles Rams (9-3), and Seattle (8-4) at Jacksonville (8-4).
Our Sunday night tiebreaker features the Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers (10-2).
Good luck! – CAP
