Week #5 - 2024
Both New York teams had a hand in the Week #5 results of our 9th Annual Charity Football Pool.
Our football Sunday started early, with a 9:30 AM ET kickoff between the Jets and Minnesota Vikings in London. One of our players was *eliminated when the Vikings moved to 5-0 on the season by beating the Jets 23-17.
Later in the day, and some 4,800 miles away in Seattle, the New York Giants improved to 2-3, and *eliminated our remaining two players by upsetting the near touchdown-favorite Seahawks on their home field, 29-20.
You’ll note the asterisks above next to the eliminations. Since all 3 of our remaining players were eliminated in the same week, we are giving them all a mulligan (a do-over), so all 3 players will advance to Week #6 and continue their quest for a title.
Week #5 by the numbers:
3 players started Week #5
3 eliminated / granted mulligans
3 advance to Week #6
Week #6 again features a 9:30 AM ET kickoff from London. This week’s morning match-up features the London-regular Jacksonville Jaguars against the Chicago Bears. Like last week, anyone choosing that game must have their pick in before it starts. A pick for any other Sunday or Monday game must be made by 1 PM ET.
Better luck in Week #6 to our final 3 players.
