The Entrants
The Analysts have submitted their papers and claimed their Home Teams. The Claim Box for Fibonacci Stakes VII is:
Slate of Games
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.
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: five Thursday nights (TNF), five Sunday nights (SNF), and four Monday nights (MNF).
Picks
Remember: Every Analyst has a bias for his or her Home Team and may NOT pick their Claimed team to lose. Analysts do not have to pick his or her Home Team to win. See the Stakes Rules for more.
Email picks in private to The Bookie before each Leg (week) of the Race. Thursday Picks are due at 5pm EST / 2pm PST on Thursdays. All Sunday and Monday Picks are due on Saturdays at 5pm EST / 2pm PST. No Picks for games after kickoffs are accepted.
No revisions (Re-Picks) are possible after the Picks have been released to all Analysts by The Bookie.
