This week only one member got all three of their predictions correct so I'm just crowning him/her the outright winner. And that person is...

US PRESSWIRE

Everyone's predictions about the Saints vs. Falcons game made this past Friday have finally been tallied, analyzed and formatted accordingly. They can be found in their entirety below.

As you can imagine, we had a lot of incorrect predictions given the Saints dismal performance. But we did have one member still get all three of his predictions correct so I'll just go ahead and crown him our outright winner and forego putting it to a vote. So congratulations CSC member and wannabe punter Legatron Morstead for being our most prognacious prognosticator this week!

Look over the entire results below and feel free to tell me all the ways in which I've screwed up the scoring.
