Spiegs & Mannelly Furious Five — Week 9
(CBS) Each week during the NFL season, the crew of the Spiegel and Mannelly Show is taking part in a confidence pool contest that they've termed the Furious Five. It's simple. They pick the winner of the Bears game (typically, but not this week with Chicago on a bye) and four other big games, assigning each those five games with a value between one and five based on how sure they are of any given prediction, with five showing the most confidence.
Then we add up the points of the games they correctly called because, as always, we love keeping score.
The weekly winner chooses the artist of the week to be featured on the show the following week.
Week 8 saw Nick Shepkowski and Adam Harris make up a few points while Matt Spiegel grabbed sole possession of first place. Here are the updated standings, with point totals from Week 8 in parentheses.
Matt Spiegel: 71 (9)
Patrick Mannelly: 70 (8)
Nick Shepkowski: 65 (12)
Jay Zawaski: 61 (8)
Adam Harris: 52 (12)
