Happy New Year! KIWA Sports is nearing the end of this season’s NFL predictions, and if this is your first time here, this is the rundown:
Sam, Nate, Katie, and Anna send out their individual game picks for the week. They predict favorites, occasional upsets, and square off for bragging rights. We are tracking accuracy and those bold predictions along the way.
Going into Christmas Day, Nate sat three games ahead of second place, held by Anna at a 64-39 record. However, Nate went 7-9 this past week, missing five of his last six games to wrap up Week 17.
On the other end Anna stepped up her game this week, only missing two games on Sunday. She achieved a 10-6 record on the week, overcoming her three-game deficit to Nate entirely. They go into the final week of the regular season tied and get to battle it out for the first seed of the KIWA NFL Picks Playoff.
Sam gained some traction on the leaders in front. He had two upset selections, the Texans and Browns, which nobody else here at KIWA had selected. He went 9-7 on the week and sits three games back from first place.
Katie had a modest week, going 8-8, still trying to catch up to the rest of the field as the regular season nears its close. She currently trails Sam in third place by four games.
To get a look at each selection from last week, see KIWA NFL Picks – Week 17.
It’s the final week of the regular season! It’s sad to say we are already in Week 18, but this week also means every matchup is inter-divisional. In other words, this is a great setup for what we’ve got in store here at KIWA come playoff time. Let’s get into the action.
