The <strong>OSGA Progressive Pick &#8216;Em<\/strong> has a been no different. But in Week 6 of the NFL everything changed resulting in something we have not seen in nearly 20 years of running our NFL Pickem Contest!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/PP2020-winners.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"110\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-3273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/PP2020-winners.jpg 1250w, https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/PP2020-winners-768x338.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/PP2020-winners-300x132.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/PP2020-winners-1024x451.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/>The OSGA Progressive Pick &#8216;EM is 2 contests in 1, with a weekly $50 sports betting prize for the best card, this year sponsored by reduced-juice giant <a href=\"https:\/\/osga.com\/osgabooks\/betanysports.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BetAnySports<\/a>, and a progressive contest that builds every week for the players picking a perfect card, straight-up, with no pointspreads. The Progressive Pool starts at $100 in Week 1 and adds a hundred bucks every week until a perfect card is hit or the football season ends. We have had years where no one hits all season long, years where it gets hit once or twice during the season and weeks where two players achieve a perfect card and split the pool.<\/p>\n<p>But this year, in week 6, we had <strong>EIGHT players pick a perfect card<\/strong>! There were just 14 NFL games on the board in Week 6, with four teams on a bye making it a bit easier, but never did we expect to have so many players pick every game correctly. There have been rouhly 300 weeks of the contest since it&#8217;s inception and now a new precedent has been set.  <\/p>\n<p>The list of winners is long! <strong>Caldwell<\/strong>, <strong>AL23<\/strong>, <strong>wordhorse222<\/strong>, <strong>Rob LK<\/strong>, <strong>patek<\/strong>, <strong>Kevint<\/strong>, <strong>JNoss <\/strong>and <strong>funkymoney <\/strong>all picked every game correctly, hit the MNF game and cashed in! They split the $600 Progressive Pool that built through the first 6 weeks, each cashing in for $75!<\/p>\n<p>The Progressive Pool now resets to $100 and will continue to build throughout the rest of the 2024 NFL season. We hope that a player again oes undefeated and the pool is hit, but there is little doubt we will ever see eight players all achieve a perfect card again.<\/p>\n<p>Get your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/Contests.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">picks in now<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/Contests.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">sign-up<\/a> to get in the action!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Week 6 of the OSGA 2024 Progressive Pick &#8216;Em produced a result that had not been seen in 19 previous seasons.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3916,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,86],"tags":[36,65,154,195],"class_list":["post-3912","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-promotions","category-special-promotions","tag-contest","tag-nfl","tag-pick-em","tag-winners"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3912","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3912"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3912\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3920,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3912\/revisions\/3920"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3912"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3912"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.osga.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3912"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
