The games this weekend went as expected. All four home teams won, setting up some interesting match-ups for the divisional playoffs.
On Saturday, the Seattle Seahawks beat the Detroit Lions, 26-6. The Oakland Raiders were on the road at the Houston Texans and lost the game, 27-14. Seattle will move on to play the Falcons in Atlanta and the Texans will visit the New England Patriots this Saturday.
Yesterday, the Pittsburgh Steelers defeated the Miami Dolphins, 30-12. Later in the evening, the Green Bay Packers beat the New York Giants, 38-13. The Steelers will be heading to Kansas City to take on the Chiefs next Sunday and the Packers will go to Dallas to face the Cowboys.
I’ll have previews for these games on Thursday for the weekly playoff Free-For-All post. For now, let’s take a look at this week’s contest results!
Rewards, Winners, and Payouts
We had a total of 32 contestants for the NFL Wild Card Free-For-All contest. The totals earned from Thursday’s post were 62.38 SD and 212.802 STEEM. I sold the SD for STEEM at a price of ~$0.15 per STEEM and received 411.106 STEEM, bringing the total to 623.908.
