Didn't look at the prop bets. Can I not pick players who have not yet played?

I'd say yes (for whatever that's worth), and you lose any tiebreaker.

Sorry I didn't answer in time. I think the cutoff was the first game played. I'll set it to the last game for the rest of the contest. Just make sure your prop pick hasn't started their game yet.

I wanted to go to the Jaguars game Sunday but decided to pay my mortgage instead. This Jacksonville team is the best since 1999.
