**** 2024 Season-Long NFL PEEHS! ****
Hello again, football fans!
It’s that time of year again! The premier, flagship contest of SE, Season-Long NFL PEEHS, is returning for its 12th season, the second under my stewardship. When Kris ran this contest, I always appreciated how much fun it was, and how it brought this diverse little community of football fans together. With his blessing, I’ll be running it again, for hopefully the best installment yet!
But I may need help. I work, and it’s a long season through the holidays, and I know I won’t be available for the Thanksgiving reveals. I’d like for last year’s go-to guest revealer Rawlz517 to be able to step in, if he’s available, or I’ll take any volunteers if he’s not. If schedules change, we’ll play it by ear.
I’ve never played PEEHS before, what is it?
PEEHS is basically a fun, free NFL football futures contest. You make an entry by giving answers to the 25 questions before the season starts, and I reveal the answers once a week as the season goes along. For every question, your answer will either be CORRECT, or INCORRECT.
If your answer is CORRECT, your score for that question will simply be the number of people who selected your same correct answer. If you’re the only person to select your correct answer, that’s an ACE! …and your score for that question is 1.
If your answer is INCORRECT, then your score for that question is the number of people who picked the SHEEP answer (most popular answer), plus the number of different correct answers submitted for that question. The SHEEP (most popular answer) can be either correct or incorrect; all that matters is the number of people who selected the SHEEP.
Therefore it’s most important to be CORRECT in all your answers, but also be among the fewest participants that select your correct answers.
Scores add up per question over the season. Lowest score wins.
Our reigning 2023 Champion is pwnsall!

Also played by 6 players, our next correct is the Cincinnati Bengals. They've scored 297 points so far this season, which is good for 5th in Points For.

Our next correct was played by 2 entrants. Stop the presses, I finally got one right! ...Even though TechSupport went homer and ace-blocked me. The Philadelphia Eagles are 8th in Points For.

Question 11 closes with one ace.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers check in the top 10 of Points For at number 6!

With a SHEEP score of 6, plus 7 different corrects submitted, incorrects will receive a score of 13 for this question.
Here are the scores after 11 questions!
Not much changing up top, but, CRUCIALLY, RT takes over for me in the Trollface Award spot!
That's all for this week!
Enjoy the games this weekend, then check back on Tuesday. The best ability of your running back is AVAILABILITY, so we'll see who's in the top 10 of carries!
Also, I need a volunteer who'll be around next weekend for the Thanksgiving reveal.
I'll be traveling for dinner with my family, then I'm headed straight to Cherokee for the WSOP Circuit Event!
So if you could do the reveal for Thanksgiving games either Friday or next weekend, that'll be great. I just need someone to reveal the answers, I'll update the scoring when I get back.

👍
Rawlz got back to me, he said he’ll be able to do it.
I’ll get the Question 12 Reveal up tomorrow
Who's here? It's time for the Question 12 Reveal!
12. Name a running back in the top 10 in rushing attempts (carries) by the end of Week 12
For this question, we had 18 correct answers, and 30 incorrect answers.
We'll start by reviewing the incorrects first.
The most popular incorrect answer, though not the SHEEP, was played by 5 players, including yours truly (sigh). Travis Etienne has dealt with injuries, and had a disappointing season for the similarly disappointing Jaguars. He checks in at 38th on the carries leaderboard.

Also played by 5 contestants, our next incorrect is another running back we thought highly of in the preseason, who hasn't lived up to expectations. Breece Hall is 19th on the carries leaderboard.

Our next incorrects are a pair of would-be 4-pointers. Chalk it up for the L, let's give an injury mulligan to Christian McCaffrey, who just recently came back, and hasn't yet looked quite like himself.

Also played by 4 players, our next incorrect is Rachaad White. He was a surprise correct for this question last year, but missed some time to injury this year, coupled with the emergence of Bucky Irving. White is currently 36th on the carries leaderboard.

Our next incorrects are a pair of would-be 3-pointers. My Falcons' own Bijan Robinson has had some nice games, and he's been healthy, but I think if you invested a top 2 fantasy pick in him, you're feeling disappointed right now. He just missed for this question, at 12th on the carries leaderboard.

Also played by 3 entrants, our next incorrect is Jonathan Taylor. He's also missed some time, but looked okay when he's been in there. Taylor is 15th on the carries leaderboard.

Our next most popular correct answer was played by 4 entrants. Najee Harris isn't the most efficient runner, but he's a prototypical bell cow back who gets what's there. He's 5th on the carries leaderboard.

Question 12 closes with three aces, each member of the top 3 in carries!
The Rams' Kyren Williams went on a crazy touchdown streak this year, and he's 3rd in carries.
