I thought I’d do a last minute check to make sure I didn’t pick any of those guys, and it turns out I used Manningham before. I’ll take Brandon Lloyd. ---

> [@VarlosZ](#): > > David Garrard > Ahmad Bradshaw > Jacoby Jones Garrard 0 - didn’t play Bradshw 22 Jones 70 I had Hill 258 Johnson 39 Lloyd 73 Should we let Varlos repick QB since Garrard didn’t play? OTOH, it wasn’t a last minute scratch, he had finger surgery a few days ago. ---

You can only have Bradford if he scores less than I need to beat you. Nah, I guess you might as well be able to use him, since getting a 0 feels sort of lame even though it’s totally your fault and you’re a bad person. ---

Spreadsheet is [final](http://members.cox.net/senorbeef/YardageComp2010.htm) unless anyone can spot any errors. For comparison, here’s [last year’s spreadsheet](http://members.cox.net/senorbeef/SDMByardagecomp.htm) Week 17 scores: 1. Omni 263 2. SenorBeef 241 3. Varlos 170 4. RNATB 139 I can’t believe you guys finally overtook me at the end of the year only to forget the last week. Do you know who you’d have picked if you remembered? Which leaves the final scores: 1. SenorBeef 4601 2. RNATB 4497 3. Varlos 4475 4. Omni 4093 By position QB 1. Omni 4199 2. SenorBeef 4150 3. Varlos 3969 4. RNATB 3928 RB 1. SenorBeef 1633 2. Varlos 1497 3. Omniscient 1214 4.

I seem to have some kind of Midas touch for wideouts… I dominated at WR last year, too. Anyway, I like coming second. It’s a tradition. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/nfl-yardage-pool-competition-2010/550601.md?page=11)
