In the other 10 games where we had a lone wolf, the lone wolf went 5-5, with two victories going to Cory, who had four correct lone wolf picks in Week 1, two going to Eric, and the last one becoming Evan’s first lone wolf victory of the year.
Congratulations to James Dailey, who led the fans in Week 1 with eight correct picks and then backed it up with the victory in Week 2 with seven correct picks and the MNF tiebreaker, coming the closest of our tied leaders to the correct combined rushing total in the Pittsburgh/Cleveland game.
