PBaco & Sam V share the Pickem' win Gannibal Lecter was back on top of the podium in week 8 after capturing the week 7 sweep. After starting strong. Gannibal Lecter lost a 1-point flyer on the Ravens, but was perfect down the stretch and after scoring a 12-point victory on the Commanders win, had sealed up the week 8 Confidence victory. Sam V was able to gain 9 points on the Bears win, but was unable to catch the leader, having lost 3 points on the Cowboys, and finished in second place.

Three players were almost perfect picking the week 8 matchups. With just three technical upsets (and really only the Cards win), there were a lot of wins to be had in the Pickem' contest, but PBaco, Sam V, and Gannibal Lecter were able to finish with 13 wins to separate from the rest of the pack. Gannibal Lecter missed out on his second sweep in a row by leaving the tie-breaker scores blank, meanwhile PBaco & Sam V both predicted the final score to be 24-23, so they ended in a tie and shared the week 8 Pickem' victory.

For the first time this season, there were no lives lost in the Survivor contest, meaning all 15 players continue on to week 9. Jacksonville, Cincinnati, New England, and the Rams accounted for most of the wins, but Steeler Nation got by on the Washington win. We'll see if they can keep the momentum going next week.
