As Don Meredith used to sing at the end of Monday Night Football, the party is over.
Rich suffered his first actual miss of the season last week. Pretty good run to make it to week 14, though. Should have been in Vegas.
Comparatively, Tony, Anthony, John and Andy have combined to miss 22 through 15 weeks.
So, if you are still alive, you now know whose picks to watch.
Here’s the list of who has previously been used:

And here are our explanations:
Rich – Contributing writer and publisher and editor for SouthernMinn SCENE magazine
Only because I have no respect for the Detroit Lions organization, and Drew Brees always plays well on national television.
Tony – Co-founder, web guru
If you’re actually alive at this point in the season—and there are others in your pool alive—wow. Of course, by now, you’re likely picking opponents to lose, rather than teams to win—that’s what this week is all about. The Cowboys have one win without Tony Romo on the field, while the Jets have been shockingly competent all year long, to the point of contending for a wildcard spot. This week won’t change those trends.
Maggio – Fantasy editor
What’s that you say? I’ve gotten six of my last eight confidence wrong? Now’s probably a good time to tell you all that I’ve been choosing teams with a blindfold on and by just pointing to a screen that has each team’s logo on it. This week it was the 49ers, who happen to be playing an Andy Dalton-less Bengals team at home. We’ll see how that goes …
Vomhof – Senior contributing writer
The Jets are good, not great. But the Cowboys are terrible, not bad. That said, they’re still not as bad at football as I am at the Survivor Pool. (I have now missed six out of 14 weeks, including four of the last five. Pathetic.)
Andy – Co-founder, editorial director
If the Vikings play the way they did against Seattle, they won’t win many games. If they play like they did against Arizona, they can compete with anyone. The Bears’ hot streak seems to have cooled. And the Vikings have to get back to winning to maintain their playoff spot. It’ll be close, but Minnesota should prevail.
