For the first time this year, Marc Mayfield included Baker Mayfield in his starting lineup -- and then he won the Weekly contest. Click through to Marc's winning lineup for Week 16, the perfect score and the percentage-of-use chart.
Starting a player who shares your last name might not always be lucky -- like if your name happened to be Marc Bortles -- but it worked for him this week. Besides his namesake, Mark also included maximum-points players Antonio Brown, Zach Ertz and Harrison Butker in his lineup. Just as important, he avoided some heavily-used duds -- Ezekiel Elliott appeared on 66% of all entries but scored only 10 points, and the Chicago D/ST appeared on 56 percent of entries but scored only 3 points. We are giving Marc a $25 gift certificate to remind him of this stumble upon good fortune.
One last chance to play in 2018! Enter now for Week 17.

Last week we debated whether we should black out Ezekiel Elliott. Ultimately we didn't, and the one-third of entrants who didn't use him were mostly rewarded. Ditto for the Chicago defense.
