Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) https://www.immaculategrid.com/football Free to play. Edit: Think of the most obscure players you can. For example, don’t enter Josh Allen or Mayfield for 3,000 yard passers! I was just introduced to this daily game the other day. Not sure how long this game has been going on. I’ve been on pro football reference for a long time and even had a stat head subscription for a while. Today’s grid futures the Bills as one of the five teams. The grid resets every day at 9am Eastern time. So there is some time to still fill out this one. Feel free to post your score here when you are done. My score was 251. Pretty weak considering I went 9/9 and my three Bills players totaled 7%. The lower your score the better. Your score is the sum of your percentages. A wrong guess is worth 100 points.

GunnerBill Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 Ah okay. I had a go but didn't read all the rules first. I scored 377. I also went 9/9 but I didn't realise the aim was the most obscure people to fit the category. I went for Mayfield, Carr and Allen as the 3,000 yard passers which no doubt upped my number. I did get two less than 5%s though without trying haha. 1 2 Quote
Bubba Gump Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) Pretty cool game. I scored a 379. I had three obscure answers. Lee Smith was 8% Leroy Hoard was 6% Clay Matthews was 5% I didn't realize the more obscure answers you use, are better than the obvious answers. Edited July 27, 2023 by Bubba Gump Quote

My obscure answers were Matt Schaub (Falcons and Raiders) and Andy Levitre (Falcons and Bills). 2 Quote

If I'd realised I'd have gone for Derek Anderson, Rich Gannon and Orton. EDIT: re-ran my other answers with those 3 QBs that gets me down to 240. Edited July 27, 2023 by GunnerBill 1 Quote
Metal Man Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 437 but I read some posts here before playing so I shot for more obscure answers like Bledsoe for 3000+ instead of the obvious Josh or Pat Williams for Bills/Vikings instead of Diggs. Hostetler for the Raiders was my most obscure with .8%. Quote

I tried for most the day yesterday to come up with Derek Anderson’s name but to no avail. Drove me crazy. Ended up going with Bernie Kosar. Quote

ExWNYer Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 (edited) I misunderstood the concept at first but understand it now, after trying. I only answered the 3,000+ yard passing season column because I was too obtuse to understand that they wanted players who played for the two teams in the intersecting grids and kept entering QBs after I got the 3,000+ column right. 🤦♂️ As a result I only got Bernie Kosar (Browns, 19%), Daryle Lamonica (Raiders, 1%), & Joe Ferguson (Bills, 1%) for a total of 621. Edited July 27, 2023 by ExWNYer Quote
Freddie's Dead Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 627. Kosar 19, lamonica 1, fitzy 7. Now that I understand the game, I'll do better next time. I thought I had to pick guys that were both Bills and falcons in that box, so I just filled in the 3000 yard passers column. 2 minutes ago, ExWNYer said: I misunderstood the concept at first but understand it now, after trying.

SMAKCruiser Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 Pat Williams for Bills and Vikings, only 1%! He was the first one I thought of, lol Quote

There is one box where you would fill in a player who played for both the bills and the Falcons. The next game comes out in just a few minutes. Just try and keep beating your lowest score. 37 minutes ago, SMAKCruiser said: Pat Williams for Bills and Vikings, only 1%! He was the first one I thought of, lol That’s who I went with as well. When I picked coy wire yesterday for Bill/Falcons, I made the pick at like 9:02AM and his percentage was 100%. I was the only one to fill in that Square at that time. Then as the day goes on the percentage drops. ended up being 2% I think. Quote

Coach55 Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 Got a 136 for my first time playing... Didn't realize the concept right away and picked Stefon Diggs for 80%. I wish I could redo that slot: Nat Dorsey for Browns/Vikings was .01% Vance Walker for Raiders/Falcons was .02% Michael Bennett for Raiders/Vikings was .2% Andy Levitre for Bills/Falcons for 2% Shocked Drew Bledsoe only 4% for 3000 yd passers 1 Quote

May Day 10 Posted July 27, 2023 Posted July 27, 2023 I did Coy Wire and Ryan Fitzpatrick. Antoine Winfield was a foolish Bills/Vikings pick Quote

He unfortunately died 7 years ago at the age of 39. His death was under "mysterious circumstances". Not sure if they ever found out what really happened to him. All I remember is they said he died from a fall while on vacation. Quote
