The Seeders’ Cup is a four Leg competition!

The Fibonacci Stakes is a five Leg competition!

The Slate of Games for Fibonacci Stakes IX includes twenty-two head-to-head competitions — five in Legs 1 and 3 plus four each in Legs 2, 4, and 5! Head-to-head competitions limit options since Analysts may not Pick against their own Home Teams.

In addition, seven Home Teams will enjoy a bye week during the Stakes. Picking teams going on or coming off a Bye limits the potential for Fibonacci *bonus* points. Leg 1 byes include Ravens and Bengals — neither team can earn *bonus* points until Leg 3. Leg 2 byes include Jaguars, Dolphins and Buccaneers – none of these teams can earn “bonus* points until Leg 4! There are no byes in Legs 3 and 4, but the Bears and Packers are on byes in Leg 5 (the richest *bonus* Leg!).

Fibonacci *bonus* points can be earned from both Home Teams and un-Claimed Teams if taken in two straight weeks. Un-Claimed Teams with a chance at Fibonacci *bonus* points are:

  • Legs 1 and 2: Cardinals
  • Legs 2 and 3: Cardinals and Saints
  • Legs 3 and 4: Patriots, Texans, Lions, Jets, and Saints
  • Legs 4 and 5: Raiders, Texans, Lions, Jets, and Broncos

Home Teams owned by an Analyst are in bold. The team at the left is the visiting team; the team at the right is the host (playing at home). There are many featured games: six Thursday games (TNF, including all three Thanksgiving Day), five Sunday night (SNF), and three Monday nights (MNF). SNF flex scheduling has already begun, so the teams listed for Sunday Night Football may change.

The Fibonacci Stakes looks to be wide open this year as the Slate of Games features 46 games over 5 Legs, and features thirteen head-to-head contests! The most challenging may be the 1st and 3rd Legs when only 8 total games and 3 head-to-head games are available for selections (both weeks). Several playoff-caliber teams go on Bye weeks during the Stakes, limiting the potential for Fibonacci bonuses during the month!

Six Home Teams are bye-weeks during Fibonacci Stakes VII. Bye weeks will limit the following teams as Picks for Fibonacci bonuses: Browns and Eagles (Leg 1), Chiefs (Leg 2), Bears and Bills (Leg 3), and Buccaneers (Leg 5). Bonus points are not possible when these teams are in or coming out of a Bye Week.

Alternatively, several un-Claimed teams are eligible for Fibonacci bonuses during the Race: 49ers (Leg 1 to Leg 2), Colts (Leg 1 to Leg 2), Panthers (Leg 1 to Leg 2), Colts (Leg 2 to Leg 3), Jaguars (Leg 2 to Leg 3), Rams (Leg 2 to Leg 3), Colts (Leg 3 to Leg 4), Jaguars (Leg 3 to Leg 4), and Broncos (Leg 4 to Leg 5). The un-Claimed teams must be taken in both Legs (and Win the second) to yield Fibonacci bonuses.
