PFCC Week 1: Six Dawgs Take Cards, Everybody Else Pays

By: Sugar (2026-09-16)

The 2026 version of dirty-dawg.com's PFCC finally got underway Sunday with 13 tilts. Two takeaways: The Jets Won. The LA Chargers didn't! A whopping 56 dirty-dawgers had faith in the lesser-accomplished New York team, while the 221 member overall field took a -679 point combined loss. Of Course, that paled in comparison to the combined 2895 point thumping the field took on the LA Chargers loss to Arizona. Six Top Dawg badges were awarded to those soothsayers that were solid on The Cardinals. 

Pucker factor was off the charts watching the Lions cough up a 21-point lead, but they survived in OT when the Saints went for two and came up empty. And Patrick Mahomes is back from his knee injury and Taylor Swift is back from her honeymoon. The average score for Week 1 was a luke-warm 51.4 points, although the Top 10 players came in with an 84.4.

Leading the way for Week 1 is John Sikora from Saint Albans, WV. John went 11-3 scoring 93 points along the way to take home the Week 1 crown. Veteran dawg, Daniel Luyk from Grand Rapids, MI was the Week 1 runner-up with 91 points and Desiree Meadows finished third with 89 points.

In group play, it was Georgian Bay Connection as the first group out of the gate, holding a 1.2 point lead over Tony's Barefoot OWIes. Don't look now, but powerhouse and current CFCC group leader BoomerBacks is just 3.2 off the top pace and Nittany Squalls is 3.7 points behind.

 So Mr. Sikora and Georgian Bay Commish Danielle Nittle have the front page podium if they want it. We will continue to monitor for their insight. In the meantime, Week 2 games are already posted, so get those picks in and good luck with PFCC Week 2!

First Week CFCC Results Against-the-Spread

By: Boda (2026-09-11)

Our first stab at a new contest that adds an extra couple of layers to our regular confidence contests produced some interesting results (to say the least).  First, a big thank you to those that decided to give this a try. We thought making these picks against the spreads would be much more difficult, given that Johnny Vegas is mostly pulled out of the equation.  But then being asked to also add confidence numbers to your picks really adds to the degree of difficulty - especially with so little advance knowledge of who is playing for what team at the beginning of the year.  Oklahoma State, for example, had 91 new players on its roster for its game against Tulsa last week !  And then lost a game they were favored in. 

What happened was somewhat surprising and showed that the confidence factors matter a great deal in scoring.  Of the 57 players, two-thirds posted net positive scores, with the best record (11-3-1) coming from Kelly Sink, Debra Vaughn, and Trinna Patterson.  Overall points-wise, Andrew Kennedy came in with an incredible +67 points (out of 120 possible), followed closely by Kelly and Debra. Keeping up that success rate over time with confidence-weighted scoring is the real test - and we're interested to see how that goes. 

We don't have all the bells and whistles from the other contests in place yet, but that will happen with time.  Until then, we encourage any other interested dirty-dawgers to step in and give this a try with Week 2.  The Game Form is open until 11 am CDT Saturday.
