With the Regular Season coming to a close, so too does the Prediction Contest. We had 10 people participate all 17 weeks, and 2 others who only missed 1 week. Naturally, they were at the top of the standings.
I'll start with Week 17 results, and we had our first player get 14 picks correct. Congratulations to oldecoltsfan on a great week. Also having a very good week is PB, who got 12 picks correct.
My predictor picks finished exactly the same as my head picks, which is pretty funny. I'm just glad I finished over .500.
Without further ado, here are the final results:

Congratulations to TouchdownMonkey, as he wins our contest by 6 games! He was consistently good all year picking games, and he can proudly boast about his championship. Overall, Dave Richard of CBS Sports got 142 correct, which is also mighty impressive. Simmons finished in 3rd place overall. I'll lay off of him for a little while, except if he decides to ignore playoff wins by the Colts again.
The results below are (originally) sorted by Total score. Feel free to click on a column and sort them yourself. I've again separated out the "experts" who just picking straight up winners, to make it easier to read.
I'm going to be posting my playoff predictions, as well as my Predictor's, sometime today or tomorrow.
