Marc Calnan stayed on top of the Eastern Maine Sports NFL picks contest when the records were tallied up after the final week of the regular season Sunday night. Calnan hasn’t quite wrapped up the title as of yet however, as 11 postseason games now remain. He remains in first after a 7-9 week, now six games over second place Chris Lessner (10-6). Jeff Hoak (9-7) is two games behind Lessner and eight behind Calnan. Anthony DelMonaco (8-8) sits in fourth place, three games behind Hoak and just five behind Lessner. Cassidy Lessner (10-6) is two games behind DelMonaco. This week the Wild Card games kick off with two games Saturday and two games Sunday. The New England Patriots lost out on the #2 AFC seed by losing to Miami last week, and will play the Tennessee Titans in primetime Saturday night. Here are the records from last week/season standings and then the picks for Wild Card weekend:
