    Here is the consensus of this year's Top 7. This is not a group I would expect to just fire away this week. Hell, the leader has a nearly insurmountable 4.5 game lead. However, any of these 7 could cash with a 5-0 week.

    The best bets are

    CAR
    PIT
    ATL
    NYG

    Good luck if you decide to play. I will likely back these with rec sized bets

    Anyone interested in bringing this back for the 2016 season? Not sure what consensus to do as well. Same guys last year? Top 10 this year after say week 4? I believe consensus finished positive but I didn't track units as good as I should have.

    How did this thread work? I have paid attention to the Las Vegas Super Contest in the past. But I usually go off track and start doing my personal picks. Does anyone leverage a particular strategy in conjunction with the contest or follow anyone?

    Those were the entry names of the person this thread was started over. We began tailing his entries in the contest last year after his incredible 2014 showing. Last year he fizzled a bit. He noted he was a Detroit fan before it started and said he was gonna take them a lot through the season, which he did and they piled up losses for him. Looks like he's not doing it this year or going incognito with another name.

    I decided to stick to the same idea I did last year. Consensus of top 15 for 2015 will be tracked. Out of the top 15, three didn't enter this year or are using different names.

    #1 rounding again, #8 sportsrage and #13 TD love machine.

    #14 ALL THE SLY has two entries. I'll include both in the consensus until one entry poops out and then keep only the better.

    Good start. Although I'm not sure how to track Chicago. Picked 6x but 2 were on Houston to bring it down to 4, which wouldn't qualify.


    But whatever. Go Detroit!!

    These consensus plays will be posted late Saturday night. I work late weekends. Decided to track both picks. I personally play these for 1U each and I use them for BTP.


    1. Qualifies with at least 5 selections AFTER subtracting players that are on opposite side.
    2. Qualifies with at least 5 selections BEFORE subtracting players that are on opposite side.


    #1 3-0 +3U

    #2 3-1 +1.9U

    Only 1 play qualified this week for #1 tracking and only 1 qualified for #2.

    Week #2

    Consensus for top 15 finishers last year (13 available) (2 from same person)


    Minnesota - 5 selections

    Denver - 5 selections (2 on IND)

    Runner-ups:

    Washington - 4 selections (none on DAL)

    Carolina - 4 selections (none for SF)


    There's no way I'm only betting one game. So I'm going 1U on Minny, Washington and Carolina. But I won't include these for tracking since 4 selections doesn't qualify.

    Good luck, everybody!

    From players in my consensus that would be ICEMAN AND MAV. His record so far is 9-1. Finished last year in top 10.

    #2 would be ROUGHRIDERS at 8-2 so far. Also finished last year in top 10.

    Week #3

    Consensus for top 15 finishers last year (13 available) (2 from same person)


    Pittsburgh - 7 selections

    Chicago - 5 selections (1 on DAL)

    Runner-ups:

    Miami - 4 selections



    Miami doesn't qualify for either consensus. But it was selected 4x and 3 were from the top 3 being tracked this year. Their records are 9-1, 8-2 and 8-2 in the contest. So I'm adding it as a personal play. Good luck, everyone!

    Week #4

    Consensus for top 15 finishers last year (13 available) (2 from same person)


    New England - 5 selections

    Carolina - 5 selections (1 on ATL)


    Runner-ups:

    San Francisco - 4 selections

    Jacksonville - 4 selections

    Jets - 4 selections


    Last week there was only 1-2 entries that finished the week with a winning record. So it was across the board and not just the consensus. Hopefully it's a 180 tomorrow.

    After this week or next, i'll check records of the entries being tracked. Perhaps weed out some or maybe compare to top 15 this year. Undecided.

    With so many 4-0 selections, I'm just going all out and betting all 5 games and see what happens. Always for 1U. Good luck, everyone!

    I went through most of their records and only one is having a decent shot at top 10. Nothing special this year. I still made the consensus though. But I also made a consensus of top 10 for this year. Do what you will with either consensus. Anyways, here are the numbers.

    Last year top 15 consensus:


    Giants - 6 selections (1 on GB)

    Bengals - 6 selections (1 on DAL)



    This year top 10 consensus:

    Baltimore - 5 selections (1 on WAS)

    Minny - 4 selections (2 on HOU)

    Detroit - 4 selections (2 on PHI)


    Three of the top four in standings this year have Buffalo. Good luck, fellas.

    This year consensus looks much stronger than last years. Would be helpful to track both for a few weeks and see if theres a trend
